Description
A young girl's grandpa helps her grow an olive tree in a war-torn land, teaching her about its strength and connection to their community.
When Salam plants her own seed, she eagerly waits for it to sprout. But when soldiers destroy everything, including her new tree, she feels crushed. Her grandpa gathers the neighbors and together they plant olive trees as far as the eye can see.
This powerful story about community in the face of hardship is told with spare, sensitive prose and gentle illustrations by debut author-illustrator Hazar Elbayya.
