The book is direct about a problem most families recognize and few discuss.
Ramadan is not a month of laziness, of eating and drinking, and of wasting valuable time watching television until late at night. It is a month of reciting the Qur'an, offering prayers, feeding the poor and doing good deeds to please Allah.
A child forms his idea of what the month is from what he sees at home, and he forms it early. That is why this is a children's book rather than a book for adults.
Through Idrees, in a story rather than a lecture. The merits of the month and the way to spend the fasting hours in obedience — in word and in deed — arrive as things happening to a boy the reader is following, which is the only register in which a child accepts being told how to spend his time.
Children approaching their first fasts, or already fasting and needing a picture of what the month is for beyond going without food. Families reading together in Sha'ban, before the month starts. Weekend schools and Ramadan classes.
