Dalya and the Magic Ink Bottle

When twelve-year-old Dalya is dragged to Istanbul to help sell her family''s ancestral home, the visit begins unpromisingly. Most of the aged mansion is off-limits because it''s falling apart, her father is ignoring her and her great aunt keeps prattling on about a family curse. Despite warnings against it, Dalya tiptoes upstairs, where she finds an old bottle of magic ink hidden under a floorboard. She asks the bottle''s jinn (aka genie) to grant her a simple wish... to send her home. Except the jinn interprets go home to mean send me back in time and turn me into a cat. Then Dalya must set off on a wild adventure through Istanbul''s animal underworld to find the jinn with the power to set things right. See more
