Editorial Reviews

Children's Literature
The gulf between Mona and her Palestinian grandmother, Sitti, is extensive. They don't speak the same language, eat the same foods, or wear the same clothes, and their countries are far apart. The evocative illustrations reinforce these differences. But the really important parts of life-love and sharing-overcome these barriers of language, culture, and distance. Mona grows to love her grandmother. When she returns home, she writes a letter about her grandmother to the President of the United States and asks for peace.
From The Critics
K-Gr 3-A young American girl meets her Palestinian grandmother face to face, and the two forge a bond that sustains them from their opposite sides of the world. Wonderful collages-at once ethereal and solid, exotic and familiar-deftly serve the poetic text. (June, 1994)

    A Pertinent Story of Understanding

    This is a wonderful story of how communication and understanding can take place between strangers who think they do not speak the same language. Sitti and her grandmother reach beyond words to communicate and create a lasting bond. This is a story that is perfect for today's children who need to see how we can understand those who seem to be so very different from ourselves and that we can find wonderful secrets and memories to share.
