The spirit of Ramadan is rooted in generosity to family, friends, and neighbours, and this story embodies the spirit of Ramadan beautifully! Saleem has just moved to a new city. On the first night of Ramadan, he finds a scruffy kitten clinging to his backyard fence. Even though Saleem and his family make “lost cat” posters to hang up around their neighbourhood, he secretly hopes they never find the cat’s owner! After all, Rami is Saleem’s only friend in this new place. (From GoodReads.)
