Middle East

Woestijnmythen, lantaarnlicht, thee op de binnenplaats

Sand dunes shifting under starlight, courtyards lit by lantern, grandmothers pouring tea from tall silver pots. Middle Eastern stories are old — older than your imagination thinks.

Samir and the Shadow-Map of the Solstice

Jiddo Youssef

Samir, a young mapmaker in the desert, uses an old brass lantern during the winter solstice to map hidden things. By manipulating light and shadows on the sand, he uncovers and records the layout of a buried ancient city on his papyrus scroll. He returns home with a completed map and a deeper understanding of the desert's hidden stories.

Leo and the Patient Moon's Button Search

Teta Layla

Leo discovers that his favorite blue sweater is missing a tiny, important button. With the gentle guidance of a patient Moon whose silvery beam illuminates different parts of his room and the garden outside, Leo searches under his bed, through his toy box, and eventually finds the button resting in the dewy grass outside. He retrieves his button, thanks the Moon, and falls into a peaceful sleep with his whole sweater.
