Description
Summary:Noura can't wait for the sun to go down. The month of Ramadan is almost over, and she and Mama and Papa are headed for the hills for a moonsighting picnic. It would be truly special if Noura's first fast ended with a glimpse of a silvery crescent in the night sky. If the moon stays hidden, that means one more long day before Noura gets to put on her sparkly new dress and the joyful Eid celebrations begin!
