Yael Bernhard is writing a children's book about olives

My friend Yael D. Bernhard has been planning a children's book about olives for years. This year she finally made it to Kibbutz Gezer in time for the harvest. In spite of the distant sounds of rockets falling, she and her daughter Sage worked alongside the rest of the olive pickers, and after work  came back out to the olives to draw and paint. 
See what she wrote about her experience on her blog:
