Loujain has always wanted to see the sunflowers from her dad’s picture. But she is not allowed to fly. Flying is for males only. But by questioning and saying why can’t I fly, I would be a good flyer, let me fly, she convinces her dad or her Barba to let her wings take flight. The story is a tad bit long, however what makes it all worth it is the information on who inspired this book. Loujain Alhathloul a leader in the Saudi Women’s Rights movement. She went about driving when it was illegal for women to do so in her country. While still alive she has been restricted in what she can do because of both the law and her legal punishment. I think this woman needs her own real biography but until then, this wonderful story inspired her will have to do. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

"Loujain watches her beloved baba attach his feather wings and fly each morning, but her own dreams of flying face a big obstacle: only boys, not girls, are allowed to fly in her country. Yet despite the taunts of her classmates, she is determined to do it--especially because Loujain loves colors, and only by flying can she see the color-filled field of sunflowers her baba has told her about. Eventually, he agrees to teach her, and Loujain's impossible dream becomes reality--and soon other girls dare to learn to fly."--Publisher's website. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
