A touching picture book about moving neighborhoods in the midst of Eid preparations, Cookies and Crescents explores how traditions can evolve when we embrace the possibilities of new beginnings, perfect for fans of Evelyn Del Rey Is Moving Away and Amira's Picture Day

Reem doesn't want to leave her home in the city, to move far away from her community and the bustling Eid celebrations she's used to. Eid is supposed to be a time to connect with family and friends--and this year was her turn to help make Mama's famous Eid cookies! What will Reem do alone in a quiet neighborhood so far away?

But Mama is sure a place of their own is what's best. Besides, maybe under this new sky they'll finally be able to spot the moon.

This sweet, authentic picture book explores how traditions (and recipes) can change and grow, and how holidays can be special no matter where they're celebrated.
