As a teacher-librarian, I have the opportunity to read young adult books to share with my students. The list that I have provided will have an overview of the book and personal comments. They are on a Book-mercial style image to get a taste of the essence of the book.

The Turtle of Oman by Naomi Shihab Nye
Very nice book and perfect for school libraries. Also the audio book is good. It's nice that different generations are featured in this story. Also incorporated into the story is science information, cultural information and the natural curiosity of a boy who's about to leave his home. The family in this story is so welcoming and kind that you would want them for neighbors. It's a nice glimpse in the world of the Middle East. Enjoy.
