30 Books for 30 Days of Ramadan

I found this theme – 30 Books for 30 Days of Ramadan from Book Riot and loved the concept so much that I thought I’d create my own kid’s version! With Passover and Easter having already taken place this month, I know that celebrating religious holidays when you can’t be physically with your religious community can be incredibly difficult.

Although not all of these books take place during Ramadan, I thought it would be nice to feature Muslim characters in picture books, middle grade and young adult novels. I hope everyone gets a chance to enjoy these wonderful titles!

You can also check out my previous lists for Ramadan here and here and check out my Muslim Voices book list too!

Ramadan Mubarak for those who are celebrating this month!
