From We Need Diverse Books comes Watermelon Seeds, a novel that weaves together eight interconnected stories of joyful activism and community by Palestinian authors, including Jasmine Warga (Other Words for Home), Omar Abed (The Book that Almost Rhymed), Jessica Khoury (The Skyborn series), and many more.

When the annual Palestine Heritage Festival is canceled, a young Palestinian girl refuses to let her community's celebration disappear. Inspired by the resilience of her ancestors, she sets out to find a new home for it, and her search connects her with seven other Palestinian kids, each on their own path of discovery.

In Watermelon Seeds kids navigate friendship, family, identity, and belonging in eight interconnected stories woven together like tatreez embroidery, amplifying Palestinian voices and illustrating experiences of children in diaspora.

Published in partnership with We Need Diverse Books.
