Fatima’s life is beset with what seem to be disasters. Her journey leads her from Morocco to the Mediterranean, Egypt, Turkey and, finally, to China. It is in China that she realizes that what seemed at the time to be really unfortunate events became an integral part of her eventual fulfillment.
This Teaching-Story is well known in Greek folklore, but this version is attributed to the Sheikh Mohamed Jamaludin of Adrianople (modern-day Edirne) in Turkey, who died in 1750.
Natasha Delmar lives and works in the Bay Area. This is her second book in this series, she has also illustrated The Old Woman and the Eagle.
“This fascinating tale will captivate young readers with its suspenseful plot. Older readers can make connections with their own lives and explore the deeper meanings of the concepts of misfortune, opportunity, and ultimate happiness. The detailed, colorful artwork of Natasha Delmar adds depth and richness to the story. With each reading, children and adults will find new details in the illustrations to appreciate and discuss. In addition, reading the book to and with children provides an excellent opportunity to build their vocabulary and literacy skills while developing their appreciation for good literature.”

La vida de Fátima es una serie de eventos aparentemente desastrosos. Su viaje la lleva desde Marruecos al Mediterráneo, Egipto, Turquía y, finalmente, a la China. Es en la China donde se da cuenta de que, aquellos sucesos que parecieron desafortunados en su momento, fueron una parte integral de su eventual éxito.
Esta Historia de enseñanza es bien conocida en el folklore griego, pero esta versión se le atribuye al jeque Mohamed Jamaludin de Adrianópolis (actual Edirne) en Turquía, muerto en 1750.
Natasha Delmar vive y trabaja en el área de la Bahía de San Francisco. Este es su segundo libro de esta serie, el primero es el best seller La señora y el águila.
