Islamic culture and the early-learning concept of opposites come together in
this stunning companion to Golden Domes and Silver Lanterns.
From the warmth of burning incense to the coolness of summer rain, this richly
illustrated book of opposites is a feast for the senses, celebrating Islamic culture and
family togetherness through special occasions, big and small. Like Golden Domes and
Silver Lanterns, Crescent Moons and Pointed Minarets, and One Sun and Countless
Stars, this latest offering features Mehrdokht Amini's signature mixed-media
illustrations and Hena Khan's rhyming read-aloud text and informative back matter. It
is equally at home in the classroom and being read on a parent's lap.
