Mobile Bookshop in Baghdad – level 3

In Baghdad, a bookworm named Ali al-Moussawi turned his van into a mobile bookshop and makes up to $4,000 a month as he sells books around the city.

Al-Moussawi said that it took him nine months to achieve his idea and he hopes that it will bring people’s attention to and promote reading.

As he moves his van, he changes the books that are on display. This is because the city is still divided and in Sunni areas, the books on Saddam Hussein are still popular.

Difficult words: bookworm (a person who enjoys books), promote (make something popular), divide (not the same in what you think about something), Sunni (a religious group within Islam).
