This wonderful book contains a carefully chosen bouquet of stories from old Arab folk literature, filled with suspense and delight, as well as wisdom, lessons, and values that do not change with time. The great children’s writer Yacoub Al-Sharouni selected six folk tales such as “The Clever Hassan” and “The Amazing Well,” retold them in his smooth language, and had them adorned with the illustrations of the distinguished artist Helmi El-Touni, making this book a valuable addition to the Arab reader’s library.
