Poetic Tales

This book seeks, first of all, to make a modest contribution to trying to bridge the gap between the young reader and his narrative, written and oral heritage, as most of these tales are mainly drawn from our Arab heritage, and some of them may be from the global heritage. Secondly, it seeks to contribute to the reconciliation of the younger generation with reading, after their repulsion from it, and them drowning in the quicksand of the modernized means of communication. It thirdly seeks rehabilitating the memorization, one of the branches to the Arabic language, which has been largely marginalized by public education curriculum in our Arab nations.
