A fictionalized retelling of Queen Goharshad, a 15th century monarch of the Timurid dynasty.

Brave with Beauty

What a beautiful, beautiful little book. I am in awe. The story is wonderful, the illustrations are stunning. I have nothing negative to say about it. I'm always on the look for books that shine a light on the beautiful cultures of countries in the Middle East, because I know they all have centuries of stories and histories that deserve to be as well-known as the west, but have sadly been vastly overshadowed by war and destruction. I would happily purchase this book for any child, with hope that they too would become brave with beauty just like Queen Goharshad.

I received an ARC of this book from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
