Life's been tough for the Saliković since their mother was hospitalised. Heartbroken and anxious about the sleepwalking escapades of their youngest brother (who is not a zombie!), the four kids and their father seek respite in nature. But the weekend at their grandparents' homestead on the edgelands of a Bosnian town turns into an adventure. They must rescue their cat and honeybees, adopt a storm orphan, and help their grandpa search for the greatest treasure of all. What keeps them going are the tales and trials of the most radiant human in the Universe.
Retelling the unforgettable stories that Salko Omerbegović originally wrote in Bosnian, the Children of Salik Series weaves together the lives of four siblings, a love for nature, and the stories that Muslim children, the world over, grow up with.
