The choice of the two festivals together shows a logical approach and a remarkable understanding of the festivals as one cannot be fully understood without the other. With its simple and appealing style a subtle but successful attempt has been made to explain the concept behind these festivals for young people. The book gives a brief history of Islam, the development of the festivals and all religious and practical aspects of the celebrations with pleasant and relevant photographs. It has a useful glossary and there are suggestions for classroom activities to involve children.
