“a great story with a nice moral about unity and finding something in common to bring people together. I found it very interesting, educational, and informative.” 

—  Dr. Rasha Mohammed Elbashir

“Easy to grasp as a true folk tale, it is a parable emphasizing the importance for people of finding something they have in common, regardless of their origin or group they belong to. …Overall, I can thoroughly recommend this book to any elementary level language learner as well as any EL teacher.”
