Here or There: The Lamp Goes.... Where?

The beautiful lamp was sitting on the shelf. It was lit. It was burning gently without smoke or soot. It was spreading its angel-like light and warmth all around the room. A kind and generous king has two wonderful sons who are twins. When the time comes to appoint a new king, he finds it difficult to make the choice: Who should he choose? The king's loyal and dear friend of many years gives him a unique advice to test his sons and find out who will rule the country with great justice and compassion. How do the twin brothers compete and, who wins in the end? The target readers are children in the age group of 3-9 years as well as the parents, grandparents and caregivers, who could read the narrative in the book to them. The purpose of this book is 2-fold: 1. Narrating a story that is laced with love, affection, morals, ethics, friendship, family ties and connection with others, and 2. Connecting the narrator through their genuine effort towards explaining significant aspects of the story composition, with the young minds. "In his first book, Azad through his heartfelt depiction of a Sultan, his queen, and their devotion to their people, shows us the beauty and poignancy of noble ideas, emphasizing the importance of putting the welfare of others before our own comforts. This gorgeously-illustrated book teaches its young readers new vocabulary, expands their visual horizon, and reinforces values we all want our children to embrace. Bravo to Azad!" Dr. Thelma T. Reyna, National Award-Winning Author, Poet Laureate Emerita, Pasadena, CA. "Azad's beautifully illustrated story shines a light on the values of kindness and thinking about others. It is also a fun way for children to learn new words and to discover how different perspectives are helpful when answering questions." Vicki Kroll, Editor, UT News, OH.
