The Long Shadow Owner - Dar Al-Rafidain

And frankly, I started to feel that the world is my home, as if I truly belong to it, and I am not just crawling on its surface. There is an exceptional attraction in the stories that orphans take on as their heroism because it is real heroism. When you go out into the world, and face it with an open chest, without a social system to support and protect you. It seems logical if we remember more childhood stories that left their marks on our hearts; Heidi, Annie, Tarzan, Sarah or Sally, Oliver Twist, Tom Sawyer, and even Harry Potter. These are the heroes through whom we learn to love life, and to truly belong to the world, as Judy Abbott expressed. This novel was written in 1912, and since then it has been a source of inspiration for readers, writers, and artists alike. It has been adapted many times into theatrical and musical performances, films, series, and even animated cartoons. This novel tells the adventure of Judy Abbott, who left the orphanage because one of the guardians decided to take responsibility for her education after noticing her exceptional talent in writing, especially humorous writing, and her insistence on happiness as a choice in life, not a right inherited from birth. This novel is considered the counter-text to all fairy tales. It gradually and gently debunks the story of the princess imprisoned in the tower waiting for a prince to rescue her. And if there is a savior who appears at the beginning of the work, in the form of a long, unknown shadow, then we will follow Judy's path as she breaks free from his guardianship, makes her own decisions, and grows in ways no one could have imagined.
