Book About:

It is a juvenile play on the significance of patriotism and defense of the motherland. I this story, a lot of elephants live in a forest. But for several years there has not been any rain, so they decide to go to another place with lots of water and trees. At the suggestion of one of them, they are heading towards the "Moon Spring" where there is a large spring and many rabbits live. But the rabbits are not happy with this happening and do not want to give easily the place where they were raised into other animals. So they put their thoughts together, and the night when the moon's image flickered in the spring, they tell the elephants who came to the spring to respect the moon that is the king of the spring. The elephants put their trunks in the water, and so the face of the moon breaks in the spring. They flee from fear. The rabbits gather around the spring and celebrate again. Mehri Mahouti, with this old story from the book of Jawami ul-Hikayat, teaches children that they should secure their homeland, and the best thing to do in this regard is to use thought and not unavoidably fight.

Author About:

Mehri Mahouti was born on 15/04/1961 in Babol. After passing the guidance school and the high school, she moved to Tehran and started studying in Banking major. But since she did not get along with the figures, she left the university. Then Mahouti was involved seriously in writing stories. Her first childish story in was published in »Keyhan Bacheha« and her first book, "Like the Sun," was published in 1993. Mehri Mahouti says,"I can’t help it. It has been so sweet and desirable that I went and go toward it spontaneously with a world of passion. It's a good feeling and does not know the time and place. It gets always a preference its company, and if it fails to be created, it pisses you off. Of course, perseverance of ants is more than me; they do not cry when they fall down, they do not even think about it, they get up fast and go on with again. However I do not even stall, but I grieve and embarrass, sometimes I cry. When I start writing, I am a child, a child with all her childish characteristics; sometimes good-humored and cheerful, sometimes sad and bored, sometimes hungry and sleepy, and sometimes a nagger. I'm always reading alongside writing. I sometimes put writing aside and just read. Reading is very significant, but I prefer writing a thousand bases.
