Woven is a story about two brilliant girls named Phyla and Lyla who live in a town where everyone¿s hair is braided together. Their stories are interwoven: each story starts at one side of the book, and both stories meet at the book¿s center page.

Lyläs and Phyläs stories reflect the vastly different ways of navigating a highly connected society. This book is an exploration of how young people can fundamentally transform society by following their unique gifts and sensitivities to the difficulties and complexities around them, no matter what path that takes. Woven poignantly communicates there is not one path to transforming the world, and, perhaps, the paths that seem so opposed are actually connected.

With vibrant illustrations by Sibba Hartunian and a unique concept that addresses ideas of both community and independence, Woven reminds us that no matter how alone we might feel, all of our stories are interconnected.
