Silverbrook: Yumna and the Golden Horse
– Discovery Stage
In a quiet town, magic awakens… Thirteen-year-old Yumna lives in a sleepy town where nothing ever happens. But when she discovers something unbelievable, suddenly it seems that everyone’s changing. When a friend vanishes, Yumna is the only one asking the right questions. As secrets unravel and danger creeps closer, it’s up to Yumna to uncover the truth. In a town full of secrets and powers, can one ordinary girl become a hero?
Yassmin Abdel-Magied has published five books including Stand Up and Speak Out Against Racism. Her TED Talk on bias has received over 2.7m views.
Mewn tref dawel, mae hud yn deffro… Mae Yumna, sy’n dair ar ddeg, yn byw mewn tref hunllefus o dawel lle does dim byd byth yn digwydd. Ond pan fydd hi’n darganfod rhywbeth anghredadwy, yn sydyn, mae’n ymddangos fel bod pawb yn newid. Pan mae ffrind yn diflannu, Yumna yw’r unig un sy’n gofyn y cwestiynau cywir. Wrth i gyfrinachau ddechrau cael eu datgelu a pherygl ddod yn agosach, mae fyny i Yumna i ddarganfod y gwir. Mewn tref sy’n llawn cyfrinachau a phwerau, ydy un ferch gyffredin yn gallu troi’n arwres?
