[ציטוט מהספר 1]
"שָׁלוֹם קוֹרְאִים לִי דָּנִיאֵל.
אֲנִי בֶּן אַרְבַּע.
יֵשׁ לִי עֵינַיִם חוּמוֹת,
וְהָעוֹר שֶׁלִּי חוּם.
אַתֶּם יוֹדְעִים לָמָה אֿנִי חוּם?
מִפְּנֵי שֶׁאַבָּא שֶׁלִּי הוּא חוּם.״

[ציטוט מהספר 2]
"פַּעַם אַבָּא צִיֵר לִי אֶת הַבַּית,
שֶׁבּוֹ הָיָה גָּר בַּכְּפָר.
הוא סִפֵּר לִי, שֶׁהַבַּיִת הָיָה גָּדוֹל וְיָפֶה;
אֲבָל אִמָּא שֶׁלּוֹ תָּמִיד אָמְרָה לוֹ,
שֶׁהַבַּיִת הָאֲמִתִּי שֶׁלּוֹ,
הַמָּקוֹם שֶׁבֶּאֱמֶת הוּא שַׁיָּךְ אֵלָיו,
הוּא בְּיִשׂרָאֵל.״

[Quote from book 1]
"Hello, my name is Daniel.
I’m four years old.
I have brown eyes,
And my skin is brown.
Do you know why I’m brown?
"Because my dad’s brown."

[Quote from book 2]
"Once upon a time, Daddy painted the house for me,
Where he lived in the village.
He told me that the house was big and beautiful;
But his mother always told him,
That his true home,
The place that truly belongs to him,
He is in Israel. "
