Very interesting Lynn. As indicated in the above comment, I was also curious about why the book seems very American. Thanks for sharing dear, I hope your week is going well for you. 🙂
I think so. It made me ponder that they even translated it…. just my thinking because most things are so strict. It is interesting to see such a book written in Arabic.
Well I knew some before I went there because I was around so many people from different countries. I picked some language up. Over in Saudi they want to speak English and practice so it was hard to learn! My kids went to school and I had to help them with homework so that made me learn more.
All I can say is, you are a very brave woman. I’m terrified to go to foreign countries, where the language is so different. I want to be able to ask where the bathrooms are, and how to order food!

I know it is weird! But, other countries outside of Saudi are very open to Western stuff.
