520    "This feast of Middle Eastern folklore from an award-
       winning Iraqi storyteller is paired with vibrant cut-paper
       art. The twenty fables and folktales in this illustrated 
       storybook have taken a long journey. Many have roots that 
       stretch across Europe, Asia, and Africa, but when award-
       winning writer and gatherer of tales Rodaan Al Galidi 
       learned them in his homeland of Iraq, it was as Arabic 
       folktales and as part of the Arabic storytelling 
       tradition. When he migrated to the Netherlands, he shaped 
       twenty of those tales into his debut book for children, 
       which was translated to English by Laura Watkinson. Filled
       with wisdom about love and acceptance, and warnings 
       against folly, these elegantly translated stories--many 
       unknown in the United States--of donkeys and roosters, 
       kings, sheikhs, and paupers are exquisitely illustrated by
       cut-paper artist Geertje Aalders. Beautifully packaged, 
       The Three Princes of Serendip is a rich and varied 
       introduction to the world of Middle Eastern folklore." --
