          Going to Mecca

          2012

          by Na'íma bint Robert and Valentina Cavallini

          We are led on the journey of a lifetime to the city of Mecca--the pilgrimage known to Muslims as the Hajj. The pilgrims walk with heads bare and feet in sandals; they call to Allah; they kiss or point to the Black Stone, as the Prophet did.

This is a window on to a sacred journey for Muslims the world over --beautifully described and illustrated for younger children
