A magical tale set in the jasmine-scented courtyards of Damascus, Syria. Haroun, the cat, likes nothing better than to spend his days sleeping in the sunlit courtyards of Damascus. Yet one thing always ruins his sleep: jasmine! The sweet-scented flowers send him into fits of sneezes! One day, Haroun hatches a plan to fix the problem, but little does he know that the Jasmine Spirit has a trick or two up her sleeve... A sweet and entertaining story that sheds a welcome light onto Syria's long and proud cultural heritage in a period of history marred by war. "A funny, magical tale whose conclusion gently suggests that there is room for us all in this world"—Guardian Witness "You'll get caught up in Damascus' dense colors and patterns, as well as its light-hearted, sweet-smelling humor. A joy!"—ArabLit "Children will be captured by the cheeky portrayal of Haroun, and those too young to read will be mesmerized by his antics on the pages"—Middle East Monitor
