Egyptian Lullaby

A rich, beautifully layered ode to the great city of Cairo, Egypt, and the connections that remain between generations separated by oceans.
Every night, my Ametti Fatma sings the sounds of Egypt to me as I fall asleep.This is the Nile,that flows through the city.Swish, swoosh, swish.This is the boat,that glides on the Nile,that flows through the city.Swish, swoosh, swish.In this heartwarming bedtime story, a young child relishes a visit from her great-aunt. Each night, Auntie Fatma puts her to bed, singing a lullaby filled with rich imagery of her home in Egypt. As Auntie Fatma sings, we are given a glimpse of modern Cairo, from boats making their way down the Nile, to gentle calls to prayer from the mosques, to young children joyfully playing soccer in the streets.Join Zeena M. Pliska and Hatem Aly on a vibrant journey to Cairo in this gorgeous, layered ode to the ancient city.
