Book Description

Rashin, an award-winning new artist from Iran, brings Rumi's classic to life! A plucky parrot living in the home of a wealthy merchant appears to have everything: the love of his owner, the best food, and a golden cage. But, despite all this, the parrot is sad. The merchant will do anything to make his parrot happy! But will he be willing to set his beloved pet free? Rashin's colorful and lively illustrations bring a fresh and distinctive perspective to this thoughtful classic about what is most important in life

 

Book Review and Awards

Making her U.S. debut, Iranian-born illustrator Rashin Kheiriyeh takes a tale by Rumi about freedom and makes it entirely her own. The glorious patterns on the clothes of Rashin's characters, the furniture, floors, walls and vessels immediately transplant readers to an exotic land.- Shelf Awareness, Jennifer Brown
