On this particular day, Ahmed is patiently waiting for his workday to end so that he can share a secret with his family--he has learned to write his name.

A delightful story, set in the Middle East, about a boy who learns to write his own name. Remarkable illustrations and rich text gives a neat view of his culture at the same time as it weaves an intriguing story line.
