[Review] Amu Nowruz and His Violets by Hadi Mohammadi; illustrated by Nooshin Safakhoo

A charming tale of the Persian New Year. Reading this book during the crossover from winter to spring will instill children with a whole new appreciation of the magical grandeur of the seasons.

Beautiful art and a classic folktale.

Note: I received this book as an ARC. It is scheduled to be released October 15, 2024. This version is an English translation. It appears that the original Iranian text was published in 2016.
