Golden Domes and Silver Lanterns: A Muslim Book of Colors

Text by Hena Khan

Illustration by Mehrdokht Amini 

Gold is the dome of the mosque, big and grand.

Beside it two towering minarets stand.

Silver is a fanoos, a twinkling light, 

A shiny lantern that glows at night.

With breathtaking illustrations and informative text, Golden Domes and Silver Lanterns magnificently captures the world of Islam, celebrating its beauty and traditions for even the youngest readers. Sure to inspire questions and observations about world religions and cultures, it is equally at home in a classroom reading circle as it is being read to a child on a parent’s lap. Suitable for all ages and cultures.
