Summary: Seductive innocence seen through a child's eye!
Review: This is absolutely enchanting book full of colors and spice, showing us not only the adventures of a mother and her daughters on a trek of self discovery through Morocco, but also the panorama of a country that was the Mecca of the hippie movement of the 70's. It is a vivid recollection of said adventure, seen from the point of view of a 5 year old child.

Summary: Incredible book
Review: This is one of the best books I've ever read. It's lighthearteded and funny, yet still has a complexity that makes you want to reach out and hug these little girls. I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Summary: Certainly not "The God of Small Things"
Review: When I saw this book on the shelf in my local bookstore, I instantly grabbed it without a second thought.My mind was salivating for Morocco; I was looking for literary paintings of the country I long to visit. Instead I received an ankle deep text, entertaining, but lacking the complexity and metaphor I seek in literature. Freud, however, is able to capture the world "through a child's eyes" quite well. Still, this is certainly no "The God of Small Things".
