The deep disillusionment and distrust on both sides of the Israeli-Palenistian conflict make the story journalist Sandy Tolan told in his book "The Lemon Tree" so stunning. It's now adapted for young readers and follows the unlikely 50-year tale of Dalia (an Israeli Jew), Bashir (a Palestinian), and the house with a lemon tree in the yard that they both claimed as their own. (Originally aired Dec 3, 2020).
