It is a positive introduction to some of the cultural practices of the Muslim religion featuring breathtakingly beautiful illustrations, and rhyming prose that educates young children about different colors. Golden Domes and Silver Lanterns is a beautifully written children’s book. It is my hope and belief that if we teach children at a young age the beauty of other religions, then they will grow up with a love of their religion, as well as tolerance for others. For that reason, this week I am reviewing the educational picture book Golden Domes and Silver Lanterns. In turn, I make an effort to respect religions that are different from my own. As a devout Christian, I always hope that those who do not share my religion will still respect it.


There is much religious turmoil going on in our world right now. Silver is a fanoos, a twinkling light, a shiny lantern that glows at night.
