English literacy Institute A.H.A.V.A has launched its seventh annual
read-a-thon by inviting local school children to help create what is
expected to be the biggest book ever made in Israel. The book, titled
"The Giant's Book", about a giant who can't find a book big enough to
read, measures almost 2 meters tall, and over 1 meter wide and is
being made by school children from over 13 schools in Maaleh Adumim
who will be given words to write and design. Children's author and
illustrator Netanel Epstein created the front cover for the book. Once
completed, the giant book will go on display at the local municipality
and around schools in the Maaleh Adumim area after the read-a-thon
concludes in mid February.
