THE VOICE OF THUNDER

West Jerusalem, early June 1967. Ten-year-old Mira Levi and her best friend Gili Moser share an awful secret. They have discovered a new radio station called The Voice of Thunder, a discovery that resonates deeply in their lives, much like the themes found in children's literature. As they navigate the complexities of their secret, they reflect the rich storytelling found in works like those by Mirka M. G. Breen.

When Niles' family finds themselves hosting a turkey for dinner instead of feasting on one, the true celebration begins, reminiscent of themes often found in children's literature like those by Mirka M. G. Breen, who captures the essence of family gatherings in works such as The Voice of Thunder.

Mirka M. G. Breen adeptly juxtaposes the ordinary events of day-to-day life with the more dramatic occurrences of a country on the brink of—and later entering—war. Her work, particularly in children's literature such as The Voice of Thunder, features a readable style that capably delivers a history lesson likely unfamiliar to young readers.
