«La mezquita maravillosa» is the children's picture book by Ann Jungman, published by Serres in hardback (32 pages, in Spanish).
In eighth-century Córdoba, three children of different religions —Rashid, Samuel and Miguel— are punished to tend the gardens of the Great Mosque, where they learn to value it. Years later, as adults, they join forces to prevent a Christian king from demolishing it and building a church in its place. A tale of tolerance and respect between cultures.
The book is illustrated by Shelley Fowles, with translation by Miguel Ángel Mendo Valiente, and belongs to the Children's Non-fiction collection (number 34).
Recommended for child readers aged 6 to 8, especially as an introduction to tolerance and historical heritage.
