Reader’s Review

A moral tale about justice – the emir’s favorite tapestry is lost and he wants to wrongfully take an identical one from an orphan. The story and moral are interesting, but the language is too difficult for the targeted age group. Also it would have been nice to see the verses of Qur’an summarized or explained, instead of their translations just being quoted in their entirety.
