Summary |
"A new all-ages adventure tale from Printz Medal Winner, Daniel Nayeri This is the tale of an exciting journey along the Silk Road with a young Monk and his newfound guardian, Samir, a larger than life character and the so-called "Seller of Dreams". The man is a scammer; his biggest skill being the ability to talk his way into getting what he wants. While that talking did save Monkey's life, it has left a lot of people furious with Samir- furious enough to hire assassins. Monkey decides to try and save Samir from the attempts on his life-as a way to pay off his debt! If he can save Samir six times, he'll be a free man ... but will they all survive that long? For fans of The Little Prince and Salman Rushdie's Haroun and the Sea of Stories"-- Provided by publisher. |
