Autorenporträt

Zainab Khan received her BA from Boston University and taught elementary school for several years before starting her own preschool program. Noura's Crescent Moon is her first picture book. Through it she hopes that children will learn a little something about the Islamic lunar month Eid ul-Fitr and Ramadan and recognize that "regardless of their faith, people celebrate in similar ways: with family, food, and gifts, and with prayers for those who are religious." Of Pakistani heritage, Zainab Khan lives on Long Island with her husband, two children, and a cat. Nabila Adani worked briefly as a product designer in Japan and Indonesia before moving to the United States to study children's book illustration. Among the children's books she has illustrated are Be a Bridge by Irene Latham and Charles Waters and Sunny and the Birds by Wendy Meddour. Nabila Adani lives in Jakarta, Indonesia, where she enjoys illustrating and telling stories for children around the world.
