In the winding streets of Mamluk Cairo, Abu Sayid receives the honour of a lifetime: creating the coronation tent for the new sultan. But as winter tightens its grip and illness slows his hands, time begins to slip away. With the deadline drawing near, Abu Sayid must find a way to finish what he started — before it is too late.

A beautifully illustrated Islamic children's book about patience, perseverance, and faith from British-Australian artist and author Rosalind Noor, winner of the Australian Muslim Artist Prize 2024. Hardcover, 42 pages, 8.5 x 11 inches.
