How did an almost empty expanse of sea and sand become an influential country on the world stage within half a century?
In 1971, seven sheikhdoms on the Arabian Peninsula joined together under the visionary leadership of one man to form the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Although established in very recent history, the UAE has deep roots in the region it has inhabited for thousands of years.
No longer a fledgling nation, the UAE’s accomplishments during the course of its development have been monumental and prolific. The discovery of oil along with the strength, resilience and tenacity of its people have ensured its prosperity.
This beautifully illustrated account of the UAE’s history tells how a nation of nomads and pearl divers living in a harsh and barren land evolved into the vibrant, progressive society it is today.
How I Came to Be the UAE is the perfect accompaniment to the UAE Social Studies Curriculum, in addition to being a beautiful and educational keepsake book for all ages.
We represent a number of UAE based authors who will explore their book with your class and engage them in an interactive session. Available titles are suitable for ages 3-12.
