Dear John,
“If we want coexisting states, we have to have coexisting narratives here in America, and not one narrative to the exclusion of the other. And I think that is an important part of peacemaking.”
That’s what I said during my thought-provoking discussion with Reza Aslan, esteemed Iranian-American writer and scholar of religions, about his newly released children’s book, A Kids Book About Israel and Palestine. With the recent decision by the International Court of Justice ([link removed]) , Aslan’s most recent book is very timely.

A Kids Book About Israel and Palestine is available now and can be purchased online ([link removed]) or in-store at any participating bookstore, including Barnes and Noble ([link removed]) .
The book, noted for its straightforward and unbiased approach to the conflict, is designed for children ages 5 through 9. Aslan’s goal is to provide parents and children with a safe space to have difficult conversations about the ongoing struggle between Israel and Palestine.
“I wanted to give kids an emotional connection to this story, and to do that, I would have to write this in the ways that they think and the ways they understand the world,” says Aslan.
Again, you can watch the conversation HERE ([link removed]) , and purchase the book HERE ([link removed]) .
