They have always sought to narrate the history of their land, as well as the history of the crimes committed by the Israeli regime, through their writing over generations.

On the other hand, storytelling is one of the oldest methods of education and has taken many forms over the years. Stories can be used to convey basic information, social customs, and more. As one of the branches of literature, children's literature has grown over time and evolved into a multifaceted genre that includes works such as novels and poems.
