Notable workWid and Walid series

Reem Saleh Al Gurg (Arabic: ريم صالح القرق) is an Emirati author of children's literature.[1] In 2009, she became the first Arab woman to enter the Guinness World Records after she created the largest mosaic panel in the world, titled "Desert Vision."[2]

Career

Al Gurg began writing for children after searching for books for her daughter. At the time, she was living intermittently in London while pursuing education, and could not find appealing Arabic children's literature. Of course, she does not want the English language, because it's an easy language to acquire and learn.

Al Gurg's first story series, Wid and Walid, follows two children on National Day roaming the United Arab Emirates. The series was published in collaboration with the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation.[1]
