Description

Somerville, MA:: Candlewick Press, , (2019). SIGNED hardcover first edition -. Fine in illustrated boards in a fine dust jacket (as new). First printing. Based on the author's own memories of being a little girl in Iran, this is a story of friendship and family. Kirkus Review stated "This sweet story is intermingled naturally with details about Iranian and Islamic traditions and values and supported by such visuals as an easy mix of traditional and Western attire and thoughtful inclusion of Persian design elements. It peaks in a moment of solidarity between the two grandmothers, each praying for the other to go to heaven, but via their different Muslim and Christian religions." SIGNED on the title page by the author and dated in the year of publication. Illustrated by Lindsey Yankey. Large format, unpaginated.
