A Million Kites

An Evening of Hope and Healing


14/08/2024

“This tiny-big book – as I like to call it – is a petition for life, a prayer for peace that arrives through the untarnished voices of the children of Gaza. Some of these children have died since sharing their childlike desires and plans for peace.”
