These Olive Trees - Aya Ghanameh

Descriere These Olive Trees - Aya Ghanameh

The story of a Palestinian family's ties to the land, and how one young girl finds a way to care for her home, even as she says goodbye. \nIt's 1967 in Nablus, Palestine. \n \nOraib loves the olive trees that grow outside the refugee camp where she lives. Each harvest, she and her mama pick the small fruits and she eagerly stomp stomp stomps on them to release their golden oil. Olives have always tied her family to the land, as Oraib learns from the stories Mama tells of a home before war. \n \nBut war has come to their door once more, forcing them to flee. Even as her family is uprooted, Oraib makes a solemn promise to her beloved olive trees. She will see to it that their legacy lives on for generations to come. \n \nDebut author-illustrator Aya Ghanameh boldly paints a tale of bitterness, hope, and the power of believing in a free and thriving future.\n
