This year’s edition of the White Ravens catalog includes 200 titles from 54 countries in 38 languages. “The Orange Girl” is TUTI’s 5th title to be selected for the White Ravens list. “Cricket, Why Do You Sing?“, “The Boxer“, “Ace“, and “What a Brilliant Idea!” are the titles that were presented in the catalog in previous years.
“The Orange Girl” is part of a 10-title series of Iranian Folktale published by TUTI Books.

The stories are rewritten meticulously to further suit today’s children. They are also accompanied by eye-catching and artistic illustrations, making them a perfect representative of Iran’s rich body of art, culture, and literature.
