Haroun and the Sea of Stories
by Salman Rushdie
Age: Middle School-High School
A famous storyteller in his land, Rashid becomes heartbroken and drained of stories when his wife runs away with their next-door neighbor. The night before another speaking event that Rashid is sure to bomb, him and his son, Haroun, are whisked away to another world where stories are kept and cared for. But something tragic has been happening to the stories as a poisonous darkness descends upon the sea where they are kept.
From the perspective of 12-year-old Haroun, Rushdie takes us on a wonderfully descriptive and magical adventure that blends fantasy with Haroun's real world.
