Résumé
Marwa and Ahmad live in an unnamed country touched by war. While they know that there is a war going on, life in their village goes on largely as normal. Marwa tells of a day when planes flew over their… village "like a cloud of angry wasps". They are warned that these planes dropped bombs, but after being frightened for a few days they forget the danger. Until one day when the two are playing and Ahmad finds a small yellow bottle and out of curiosity picks it up – and it explodes. Grades K-3. 2011. Uniform title: Petite bouteille jaune.
