From the former Children's Laureate and author of international
phenomenon War Horse comes a moving tale celebrating the bright
light of humanity surviving even in the darkest conflict.
Travelling to the West Bank to witness first hand what life is like
for Palestinians and Jews living in the shadow of a dividing wall,
journalist Max strikes up a friendship with an enigmatic
Palestinian boy, Said. Together the two sit under an ancient olive
tree while Said makes another of his kites. When Said takes Max
home, the reporter learns of the terrible events in the family's
past and begins to understand why Said does not speak. Told from
both Max's and Said's points of view, Morpurgo has created a
beautiful tale of tragedy and hope with an ending that rings with
joy.
