Review
In this, her first children's book, Kaltham al-Ghanim's interest in folklore is evident in the cadences of her engaging narrative which is full of the rich detail of life in the Arabian Gulf. This is also illustrator May al-Mannai's first book and her stylised, richly patterned illustrations, which incorporate collage, make confident use of the page. A beautiful production. Also available in Arabic. Books for Keeps Magazine
