À propos de ce contenu audio
A Map for Falasteen: A Palestinian Child's Search for Home features music and special effects. Listen along and enjoy the fun!
A young Palestinian girl living in diaspora struggles to find her homeland on a map in this gentle and heartfelt audiobook.
At school, Falasteen and her classmates are tasked with finding their families' home countries on a map, but no matter how hard she looks, Falasteen can't find Palestine.
Can a place exist if it's not on a map? Confused, Falasteen turns to her family for answers. Her grandfather, grandmother, and Mama encourage her to see their homeland from a different perspective, and each of their stories helps her understand her people's history and her own place in the world.
Including thoughtful back matter that outlines key terms and historical moments, this is a story of family, resilience and home always being where the heart is.
A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt & Company.

★ "[A Map for Falasteen] fills a gap in representations of the Palestinian diaspora, offering a much-needed insider’s perspective. . . . A haunting, powerful, and crucial tale of culture and identity." —Kirkus, starred review
★"Betawi renders Falasteen's immediate surroundings in yellows and oranges that give way to deep-blue remembrances, while Odeh sensitively narrates this double debut about a family's culture and homeland." —Publishers Weekly, starred review
