Sharjah കുട്ടികളുടെ The Children’s Reading Festival at the Expo Center will resume with games and creativity tomorrow. The dances and songs that were stopped following the separation of Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan will once once more fill the various venues at the Expo Center. ‘The Mystical Garden’ will feature skating experts spinning and dancing.
The Mystical Garden tells the story of a book that guides a generation that relies heavily on electronic devices. The audience can go on a musical journey to discover themselves with a girl named Luna. When the girl goes to see her grandmother, she realizes that there is no internet in the house. Later her only connection with the outside world is through the books on the shelf. She realizes that the magic of reading books is there. Luna literally looks at that garden in amazement. Life revolves around her.
The power of child imagination is conveyed to the audience through magical realism. The main purpose of The Mystical Garden is to “read books”, says producer Ali L. Says Burgi. There is also a book to read for those interested in gaming. If you are interested in fashion then you have a book regarding it too. So, find yourself through books, because you never know, maybe you will find your future through books, Ali points out.
