A review by mveatch6
The Turtle of Oman by Naomi Shihab Nye

4.0

This book contains the best literary grandpa ever. Seriously, once he enters the story, I loved The Turtle of Oman. Before he comes along, I was a little bored and slightly annoyed by Aref. But Sidi makes up for any problems I might have had with the book. The only problem is that it takes him too long to show up. Anywho, he's fantastic, and I also loved reading about Oman, which is somewhere that I previously knew nothing about.
