I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review here and on my blog Samwise Reviews. This was a really touching and cute story. Dalya goes to Istanbul with her father and ends up on a magical journey reminiscent of The Wizard of Oz. Through their trials and journeys her and her companions learn the meaning of friendship, family, and home, in a way that will easily resonate with children. I loved the tour we got of a few of the cities highlights, and the idea of each animal having their own Grand Bazaar was perfect. Overall this is a book that I will definitely be picking up for a few children I know.
