Jerusalem Mosaic: Young Voices from the Holy City

I found "Jerusalem Mosaic" to be facinating reading. The diversity of the population of this intriguing city was mirrored by teens from many backgrounds who are interviewed in this book. Many views were passionately experssed by the young adults portrayed. It was interesting to learn of cultures vastly different from what is familiar to me. I found the openness and honesty of these teens refreshing. I could feel the passion that burns in many of them. The authors present the youths' differences in up-bringing, cultural background, religion (or lack of it), and political views without distorting the words that these young adults used. (The recommended age is 9-12 years, however I feel that this very important book is also appropriate for adults of all ages.)
