Zionism" (2012) http://www.haaretz.com/print-edition/news/education-ministry-school-program-presents-gush-katif-as-the-epitome-of-zionism-1.413645 English classes are invited to participate in Gush Katif Education Week, marked this year during the week of January 19th-24th, 2014 by using the novel *Grains Of Sand: The Fall Of Neve Dekalim* by Shifra Shomron (Mazo Publishers, 2007), a poignant account in English of the years leading to Gush Katifs final days. The author, a former Gush Katif resident, wrote her novel while a teenager, giving the work important relevance to students, who will benefit from reading a book penned by a peer and will ideally be inspired to express their own voice through writing. An easy-to-use Literature Study Guide for *Grains Of Sand: The Fall Of Neve Dekalim* including post-reading activities and research project ideas is available for free-downloading, in entirety or by subject, on http://myvoiceinisrael.insightonthenews.net/?page_id Readers are welcomed on a remarkable journey seen through the author's youthful eyes in *Grains of Sand*; laugh and cry as you join her. I am happy to offer a special 20% student discount.
