You Are My Pride : A Love Letter from Your Motherland Hardback

Hardback

Description

You Are My Pride - A Love Letter From Your Motherland. In this powerfully written and beautifully illustrated picture book by award-winning author and illustrator team Carole Boston Weatherford and E.

B. Lewis, Mother Africa addresses her offspring of all colours in all corners of the earth, reminding us of our timeless bond. Written in the voice of Mother Africa, who speaks to her children—human beings—this stunning picture book thrums with the love between mother and child as it celebrates humanity’s common roots. Before words or tools or fire, Mother Africa’s caves sheltered us and her forests fed us.

She could not protect us from all dangers, but, like mothers everywhere, she gave her children all she could and sent us into the world with confidence and love.

Told in the ringing, singing language of a creation story, this book is a love letter from mother to child that honours our shared history. Includes back matter with nonfiction information about human evolution and about the migration of Homo sapiens from Africa around the globe.
