Books by Amirah Al Wassif

Award winning writer Amirah Al Wassif's long awaited collection of children's tales and poems, The Cocoa Boy and Other Stories, is finally available!Stories to delight and mystify, full of colorful characters and lessons imparted in Amirah Al Wassif's unique voice and wonderfully illustrated by Sarah Hussein.

Amirah Al Wassif is an eye opener. Her poetry pulls no punches - a vision of a world turned on its head, through no fault of those who must reside there. These are the words of one who has experienced more than her age would indicate. Her engagement with her themes, her subjects, rolls an extremely personal take in a universal wrapper. These are poems that need to be shared. Readers will come away with greater appreciation for the beauty in our world and greater indignation at the outrages committed against it.
