Publisher's Synopsis
"Leila then whispered, "But listen, you'll hear,
The olive trees speaking, if you lend them your ear.
They talk of the days, so peaceful and fine,
When the sun kissed the earth, and life was divine.
...
So under the olive, with its branches wide,
The children would dream, with eyes open wide.
Imagining days of joy and play,
In a Palestine, where peace found its way."
Inspired by recent events, this children's book is a tribute to Palestine, which honors the people of Palestine, its rich culture, and its beauty. The Olive Tree's Secret is the story of a little girl named Leila, sharing the Tree's secret with them. She recalls a time of peace when the land of Palestine blossomed, vibrant and renowned, where ancestors lived with joy and pride, and where children were allowed to dream free of worry.
