I cannot comment personally. Book was a gift.
I bought this for a family member who is a foster parent. She says it is everything she hoped for when she requested it. Therefore, I give is a first-class rating.

Gaza Strip film
0 of 1 found this helpful Mostly about the life of one Palestinian boy who has no hope because of the sad living conditions forced upon him by the Israeli occupation. It would be a real eye-opener to those who don't understand what 1.5 million Palestinians are going through. They are in the world's largest prison--unable to go in or out, unable to work, unable to rebuild their shattered homes, schools, hospitals, etc. They don't have the needful things of life that Americans take for granted: toilet paper, medicines, jobs, food! Their electricity and water is kept to perhaps a few hours a day--sometimes no electricity, and not enough water for washing clothes, bodies, etc. Certainly none of the luxuries that Israel boasts: clean beaches, swimming pools, coffee houses, malls, etc. It's a sad film but the saddest thing of all is that the USA allows this to happen. Buy it; watch it. Then ask yourself if it's right to give the Occupiers 2 billion dollars a year.

The Three Lives of Thomasina
An engaging Disney film about a lonely little girl, her kitty best friend, a workaholic vet, and a beautiful "witch." It takes place in Scotland, a long time ago. Some of the Scottish brogue is a bit difficult to understand, but Thomasina tells the story of how she got badly hurt and forgot about her little girl friend but was nursed back to health by Laurie, the lovely young woman who weaves and rescues hurt animals and heals them. A good story for youngsters, and the two main actors were the little boy and girl in Mary Poppins. I showed it to my 2 great-grand children and they enjoyed it. These are the Disney movies that I love the best and miss the most, because they aren't being made any more.
