Hope Rekindled: A Heart Empowered, hit the #1 Release in Inspirational Poetry on Amazon, the #4 bestseller in the inspirational poetry category and was among the top 20 in two other categories on Amazon when it was released in August 2018. It was also in the top 10 Hot New Releases on Amazon.

The book is a compilation of poems, prose, quotes, and reflections on hope, healing, empowerment, and faith as we journey through life's trials and triumphs, and as we strive to be resilient in our pursuit of purpose and finding fulfillment. It allows us to consider how challenges can provide us with an opportunity to rekindle our spirit, renew our courage, and remember our common humanity. It invites us to embrace kindness and compassion so we can make a positive difference and live in a more peaceful world, which I believe starts with hope and empowerment in the heart.

The book also includes nine pages of beautiful full-colour photography, including inspiring natural landscapes, to complement the themes of the book.

The book is available on Amazon worldwide. Please visit your country's Amazon page to purchase a print or kindle (e-book) version.  If the print version is not available in your country, please try to order it from Amazon.com.  If it says out of stock, you can still order the book and it will be made available as soon as possible.  To order from Canada or the U.S, please visit the links below:

This is the third book in a children's book series,"Hadi's Adventures Series" , which aims to:

​*Promote character education by incorporating positive values such as compassion, respect, and inclusiveness.

*Represent a diversity of children to enable children from all backgrounds to increasingly relate to and therefore accept and develop friendships with each other. 
*Show examples of acceptance, equity and harmony between members of society regardless of their faith or race, while focusing on universal values and ethics.

In turn, we hope children will thrive in a diverse and pluralistic society by developing global citizenship which entails a respect for diversity and working with others to make the world a more equitable place.

The series is co-authored by Raghad Ebied (See Bio in About section) and her husband, Raghid Shreih (MSc., MBA; Science, Technology and Innovation Professional with Experience working at Google).

Book Reviews:

On "My Many Friends, Our One Heart":
"I adore your story! I like the use of the word compassionate heroes. I think this book could speak to character education assemblies many schools adopt. I also like the nature of the book as a social story. I think that having children reflect on how they may make others feel in their actions is some of the best work that teachers can do. "
-Natalee Wales, ESL and ELD Itinerant Teacher/Learning Coordinator, Thames Valley District School Board, London, ON

On "Inventing at the Beach":
"Such a well thought out story line that flows effortlessly. My child loves learning how Arabic is read right to left and English left to right. Beautiful illustrations that encourage families to get exploring (at the beach when possible!) When you read this book, you will realize what your others books are missing... it captures hearts and minds!"
-Kaleigh O, Nurse & Mother

"Not only is this is a well written story, but there is something to learn for people of every age. As a parent, I really like the addendum at the end of the book which includes word for word translations, practical exercises and some points on inquiry based learning. Looking forward to more work by this author."
​-Saira, Educator & Mother
