hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad

This book was heartbreaking but so inspiring! I can’t even comprehend what it would be like to grow up and having to fight for your right to just be alive and have basic necessities in the way that Palestinian people have to. It’s unbelievably unfair and disgusting and I don’t understand how we’ve let this happen for so long. The genocide going on currently just makes everything even more devastating! I think it’s especially incredible how positive Ahed has been able to stay throughout everything her and her family have been through and how she’s still able to hold onto hope through it all! This is such an important read for everyone, especially now!!
