The Night the City Went Quiet
Every night, while the city sleeps, someone is awake. In this gentle bedtime story set in Dubai, a friendly streetlamp introduces young readers to the quiet helpers who work through the night — a baker kneading dough before dawn, a fisherman checking his nets by moonlight, a nurse walking softly through hospital halls, and a falcon keeping watch over the rooftops. As the sky slowly changes color and morning arrives, a little girl wakes to a warm, safe world she doesn't even know was made possible by these unseen night workers. The Night the City Went Quiet is a warm, beautifully illustrated picture book for ages 5–9 about gratitude, community, and the comfort of knowing someone is always looking out for you — even while you dream. Featuring the iconic skyline of Dubai, including the Burj Khalifa and Burj Al Arab.
