The Turtle of Oman

The book is great for children's read. Had to return it due to faulty copy.

It is a really good book. I had a lot of fun reading it.

This is a great little book set in Oman.

Love it! Book came in in great condition and book itself is amazing.

Lindo libro, un clásico de Omán. En perfectas condiciones.

Otimo

This lovely, kind story is a meditation on the challenge inherent in transitions for some people. While the protagonist, Aref, knows he will be back in three years, he struggles to pack. It is also a love letter to the positive bonds between a grandparent and grandchild, and subtly to the wisdom of a mother. That said, if you are leaving indefinitely or permanently, it may be awfully unkind to read it to your children or offer it to them to read. There is a lot of visiting loved placed and doing memorable things with a loved one who is not coming and talking about how they will do them again in three years. So glad I previewed this novel. It will be years before I offer it to my own children.
