Hassan and Aneesa Love Ramadan (Hassan & Aneesa) : Rahim, Yasmeen, Burgess, Omar: desertcart.co.uk: Books Review: A positive and vibrant way to live the blessed month - My 2 year old lives all Hasan and Aneesa books. This worked well to introduce her to Ramadan just before it started. What I really like us that - unlike most other children books about Ramadan - the children that are fasting (or attempting to do so) take it with the positivity and zeal that is appropriate for the Muslim: they are eager to try fasting and want to see it through, anticipating the feeling of satisfaction from a completed day if fasting. I dislike fasting being portrayed as a form of "torture" that the young protagonist tried to dodge and I binned a few kids' books before due to this. So, go Hasan and Aneesa!

A positive and vibrant way to live the blessed month

Great for teaching little ones a bit about Ramadan
it does give them the main reasons why we celebrate Ramadan, it’s short enough for them to understand and helps them understand suhoor as well. I definitely recommend this book to any mum for toddlers

Good and short book. Gives what children need to know at young age. My son was determined he is going to fast tomorrow after listening to the book.

Great for Teaching Children about Ramadan
Great book for teaching children about Ramadan. My daughter is a bit young to fully understand but she often asks to read the book.

The book deals with a lot of Ramadan issues such as sahur, iftar, giving charity, taraweeh, not having to fast if one is a child, or also fasting a half day as a child. The illustrations are super cute, and the words simple and easy to understand. The book teaches children all the basics of Ramadan and is sure to entertain your little ones. ( my kids especially liked the picture of the family at sahur 😉)

There are not so many books out there written for children about Ramadan. This has been an instant favourite. It explains in simple language and colourful images the basics of Ramadan, using relatable situations. Lovely book! Would definitely recommend to any parents or teachers looking to explain the basics and fun of Ramadan to children.

My children love this book. I replace the characters names with the names of my son and daughter. The illustrations are beautiful. Explains Ramadan in a way children can easily understand. Good to have reading material where my children can relate to culturally, ( names, dress, religion, etc). Will purchase more from this series.
