'Lal's Jar'. Stories from Eastern Folklore, adapted to Arabic for the pre-teen ages by Nabiha Mahidli. With detailed color illustrations. This story is about a poor Indian man named Lal whose job is to carry jars of water up a hill. One jar leaks slowly, drip drip drip, making Lal insult his jar as he goes up and down the hill day after day. But when the seasons change something wonderful happens on the side of the path where the jar dripped the water.
