## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Unique, enjoyable, but possibly inaccurate
  

*by A***H on Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2021*

Lovely and unique book celebrating an essential Islamic art form. My only question was, if Yakut was born in either Turkey or Ethiopia, why did they choose to make him so pale? It reeked of the light/white skin obsession that pervades the middle east and poisons the brown majority. If he is Turkish, fine. If he may be Ethiopian, this is just as problematic as the Bilal cartoon/movie. Other than that, it was a very simple and enjoyable book that familiarizes children with a new culture, new circumstances, and habits. I liked that sport and play did not overshadow more worthwhile pursuits (penmanship).

    not just for children: adults need this book!
  

*by K***S on Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2019*

This is one of my favorite books of all time. The art work is glorious, with colors like a shrine, plus humorous pictures of a dad shaving and delightedly discovering where his son practiced calligraphy in the steam on the mirror. The drawing of a boy hunched under a blanket with the cat and trying to write by flashlight will tell any child the fear but also perseverance of blackout during war. The story line is inevitable, simple, and profound, and all of us adults need the book as much as (or more than) any 10-year-old.
