Why Do They Hate Me?

This anthology gathers shortened versions of three books from the Children of Conflict series, each one told through the eyes of young people caught up in dangerous circumstances. The selections cover the Holocaust and World War II, the conflict known as the Troubles in Northern Ireland, and the lives of young people in Israel and Palestine.

Readers meet teenagers at moments of upheaval and follow their growing up in the middle of violence and fear. The series has been recognized for its work, and this collection brings its most affecting stories together for teen readers.
