Description

A story about the power of hope, love, light . . . and poetry

Join little Mithra as she recalls a Yalda celebration with her mother and describes the sights, sounds, and tastes of a magical winter solstice night. A message of hope and resilience, Mithra's story gives readers a joyful reminder of her namesake and what it represents, the triumph of good over evil, of light over darkness. Written in rhyming verse, the book includes a beautiful translation to Persian. The book also includes an introduction that explains the history and customs of the Iranian celebration of the winter solstice, including a reference to the poet Hafez. The exquisite illustrations are inspired by the traditional Gilaki clothing of northern Iran, and make children and inner children happy!
