Preview: Hear it

Samir, a Palestinian boy who faces surgery in an Israeli hospital, reveals the fear and the violence that have marked his life in the occupied West Bank. At the same time, he discovers that he shares certain cultural and personal experiences with the Israeli children. In Yonatan, an astronomers son, he finds a kindred spirit. Together, they plan an imaginary journey to Mars, and begin to transcend the differences between them. Text copyright 2004 Lectorum Publications, Inc.
