About the book
Nothing could be more frightening to Samir, a Palestinian boy, than to be where he is now: an Israeli hospital ward, trapped among the very people he blames for his brother's death. Amid this explosive atmosphere, Samir begins to learn about the Israeli kids around him. He discovers their hurts and conflicts -- and hesitantly begins to share his own. This is a story of violence and healing -- the story of a boy facing the enemy he has been taught to fear.
