Gaza, Eux c'est nous
Meeting with Marie Desplechin, Ahmad Ashour and Cécile Boulaire, on the occasion of the publication of Gaza, Eux c'est nous, a book published by the collective of children's publishers with the children of Gaza.
The evening opens with a reading of this sensitive story written by Marie Desplechin and illustrated by Serge Bloch, which recounts the journey into exile of Rim, a Palestinian little girl, her little brother Mohamad and their grandparents, Yakoub and Amal. Through their daily life and their survival, the narrative shows the fate of a family caught in the turmoil of war. The reading is followed by a discussion on what children's literature can offer to understand the world and to tell of childhood in wartime. This charitable book is accompanied by documentary references and seeks to recall the rights of children everywhere in the world. The proceeds from the sale of this album are donated to Médecins du Monde.
