Description

Julia Johnsons’ up to date collaboration with the watercolorist Susan Keeble is a fascinating story of a Bedouin boy Hamad and his Saluki hound Sougha (“the gifted one”). It recounts their mutual devotion and the adventures they share on Hamad’s journey to adulthood. Julia Johnson has done much to keep alive the stories of the Bedouin and their way of living and to bring them to a younger readership in Arabia and during the world. Saluki, Hound of the Bedouin, is, as at all times, thoroughly researched, and appropriately and sensitively illustrated by Susan Keeble. Children between the ages of 6 and 11 will delight on this tale of life within the desert – a lifetime of hunting and herding, of hardship and its rewards, of the hazards of death and of the bond between man and beast. All lovers of the Saluki will get pleasure from this tribute to a noble breed, offered here to a new generation.
