Wharnsby, a poet and musician, offers a collection of modern poems and songs for Muslim children everywhere. He combines religious thoughts with contemporary concerns and incorporates universal principles of truth, peace and faith... There is always something to explore, especially in the double-page spreads devoted to the title poem, Colours of Islam, and Sing, Children of the World. Kirkus Reviews With each of his songs, Wharnsby sets out to illustrate the universal messages that make up the Islamic faith, such as diversity and love, and he imparts these messages with striking honesty... Shireen Adams vibrant illustrations beautifully echo the story of each song... Colours of Islam is yet another educational read by Wharnsby that is sure to educate all young readers on the principles of Islam. Recommended. Canadian Review of Materials Children and adults will be inspired and absorbed for hours. Islamic Horizons The colorful artwork enhances the meaning of the songs. The diversity represented in the pictures (cultural, ethnic, etc.) is particularly appropriate... This title fills a great need for children's books celebrating Islamic religious practice, and it does it nicely... It will be most appreciated by Muslim library patrons.
