The Turtle of Oman by Naomi Shihab Nye

5.0

Have you ever had to move? Be far away from a beloved relative? Did that make you sad? Then you can relate to Aref's story. I loved the descriptions of the beaches and deserts of Oman, but most of all I loved Aref's relationship with his grandfather and his coming to terms with moving to the other side of the world.
