Books 106 to 110 of 160 Pages: < 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 > | | | The Girl Who Finds Her Wings ! | 32 Pages | | | Age Group: | 5+ | Illustrator: | Rahimzadeh, Pejman | Language: | persian | Publisher: | Monadi-e Tarbiat | Rewritten: | Mazinani, Mohammad Kazem | Abstract: | This story is adapted from the series of “One Thousands & One Night” ; a collection of West and South Asian stories and folk tales compiled in Arabic during the Islamic Golden Age. It is often known in English as the Arabian Nights, from the first English language edition (1706), which
rendered the title as The Arabian Nights' Entertainment. The tales themselves trace their roots back to ancient and medieval Arabic,
Persian, Indian, Egyptian and Mesopotamian folklore and literature. In particular, many tales were originally folk stories from the Caliphate
era, while others- this story is among them- are most probably drawn from the Pahlavi Persian work of Hazār Afsān” (A Thousands Tales)!
