Story Book | 6+ - Loujain Dreams of Sunflowers

$21.95 CAD

Every morning, Loujain recalls her dream of flying to a field where a million sunflowers grow. She has wings, but where she lives, girls aren't allowed to fly. Thanks to her determination and the support of her family, Loujain will achieve her dream, and, in doing so, inspire other young girls to follow in her footsteps.

This moving and poetic story is inspired by the real life of Loujain AlHathloul , Nobel Peace Prize nominee, who successfully campaigned to change laws in Saudi Arabia that prohibit women from driving cars. The original version, Loujain Dreams of Sunflowers, won the 2022 American Middle East Book Award (Children's Album category), given to books for children and young adults that contribute significantly to understanding the Middle East.
