Crescent Moons and Pointed Minarets: A Muslim Book of Shapes

by Hena Khan

Description

Step into a world of wonder where everyday geometry becomes a doorway to culture and faith. This beautifully illustrated picture book invites readers to explore iconic Muslim shapes—from crescent moons and pointed minarets to squares, octagons, and more—connecting each form to the places, patterns, and traditions that inspire it. With a gentle, curiosity-driven approach, it encourages children to ask questions, notice details, and learn how art and architecture reflect community and belief. Perfect for read-alouds and classroom discussions, it celebrates diversity while building early understanding of world religions through engaging visual storytelling in Hena Khan’s warm, accessible style.
