I often recommend Terry Pratchett's Tiffany Aching novels to kids in the 6-12 range &/or their families--they're fun to read aloud. Tiffany is a witch, & one key skill for a witch is First Sight, which means perceiving what is there, & not pretending you don't know about it. I think about this a lot

In most Arab countries, Mother’s Day is celebrated on March 21. But since Oct. 7, 2023, Mother’s Day in Gaza has been stripped of its meaning. How can these children celebrate when there are no mothers to embrace them, hold them, receive their gifts, or smile at their small gestures of love?
