Tales from Zayhir

I believe the bravest thing a kid can say is “Let’s find out.”

Two volumes so far. A world of sand, jinn and dragons, told in books and in songs.

The door in the sand


Wee Wee Kazoo blows her purple kazoo, the sand opens, and she walks into Tomorrow.

Tomorrow is where Z lives — half jinn, half dragon — and Z answers every question the same way: “Let’s find out.” Nobody in Zayhir is too small to go looking.
