Marwa and Ahmad live in an unnamed country that could be any one of dozens touched by war. Ahmad is the star goalie of the soccer team, and Marwa is his best friend. While they know that there is a war going on, life in their village goes on largely as normal. Marwa is the narrator of the story and she describes how one day planes fl y over their village "like a cloud of angry wasps." The children are warned that these planes dropped bombs, but after being frightened for a few days, they forget the danger. Until a day when Marwa and Ahmad are playing and Ahmad fi nds a small yellow bottle. Out of curiosity, he picks it up. The bomb explodes, injuring them both. Marwa describes the aftermath as she and Ahmad recover from their injuries and slowly regain hope. Written to honor the courage of children everywhere whose lives are touched by war.

Personal reflection: Even though this story is very sad, I think it introduces a necessary rawness when it comes to War and the effects that children must face in their every day lives.
Class use: Text set on effects of war on children and open discussion for times of conflict and war and the ways that children cope with war. How do students use hobbies to help with conflicts in their lives?
