ly, its history.
Utilizing a storytelling technique
and a simple conversational style,
the book attempts to convey to
children the spirit of a reborn land.
Each chapter on modern Israel
combines narration, description
and dialogue to weave a tale about
a real Israeli boy or girl, using
their adventures as a vehicle for
a wealth of factual information
about the myriad aspects of the
new life there.
