After extensive reading in the magazine “Queens’ News,” Dana decides to crown herself queen of the island, but Shamsa is not pleased and declares that she should be queen instead. The argument grows, so they gather with Salma, Mansour, and Habouba—the island’s inhabitants—to see what each of them would do if they became ruler of the island, and then choose who is best for the job. A funny and exciting story that invites readers to think about our choices in life and how to balance what we want with what others want. Shamsa is a smart, responsible girl who loves cooking and has a huge library; Dana is a talented artist who loves beauty, drawing, music, and invention and often drifts into dreams and imagination. Together with Salma the goat, Mansour the falcon, and Habouba the turtle, they live on a small island full of adventures.
