Descriptions

Boris is a new immigrant to Israel. The children in his kindergarten class talk to him, but Boris turns away; he doesn't yet know Hebrew. The children try to play with him, but Boris plays only by himself. The children gradually stop trying to be nice to Boris--until one boy's father gets called up for army duty. Feeling sad himself, this boy begins to see Boris in a new way.

Eve Tal, who lives in Israel on Kibbutz Hatzor, has authored several children's books published in Hebrew. Recently, her young-adult novel in English, Double Crossing, earned the honor of runner up for the National Jewish Book Award.
