Press release from Lynnfield Public Library:
April 22, 2022
We are in the midst of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, which ends on May 1st. This means no eating and no drinking during the day (including water!) and is a special time of prayer, reflection, and community. We've put together some great books to help you celebrate or learn more about Ramadan. This is by no means a comprehensive list, so please let us know if you have other favorites we should add. Ramadan Mubarak to all who celebrate!
