Dear Safranim The latest guest on The Book of Life Podcast is Martin Lemelman, author/illustrator of the graphic novel The Miracle Seed. This middle grade book tells the true story of how the extinct Judean date palm was brought back to life by two Israeli female scientists, after thousand year old seeds were found at Masada.
You can hear the podcast at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://jewishbooks.blogspot.com/2024/03/the-miracle-seed.html__;!!KGKeukY!w3Mtx84p3FrYx1qK734w_TPIlpp626EftEAuIbAXYSRlJC3OpjxTBTJ1GnAlEo8Qip7eyrG8vaoysIS9qlluIh5qljlXhvQMsCElpEfv5sM$ , where you'll also find links to more information and a transcript. Speaking of Israel-related books, I recently interviewed Noa Nimrodi about her middle grade novel Not So Shy (a Sydney Taylor Honor book), which features an Israeli girl's experience moving to California. This was not an audio interview but was part of the Sydney Taylor Book Award Blog Tour. You can read it at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://jewishbooks.blogspot.com/2024/02/2024-sydney-taylor-blog-tour-not-so-shy.html__;!!KGKeukY!w3Mtx84p3FrYx1qK734w_TPIlpp626EftEAuIbAXYSRlJC3OpjxTBTJ1GnAlEo8Qip7eyrG8vaoysIS9qlluIh5qljlXhvQMsCEld1b4xjw$ . Word of mouth is the very best way for the show to find new listeners, so please don't hesitate to share! Thanks, everyone! Heidi Rabinowitz
