You Are My Pride: A Love Letter from Your Motherland

內容簡介

內容簡介 由屢獲殊榮的 Carole Boston Weatherford 和 E. B. Lewis共同創作，第一人稱的口吻，以非洲母親的角度，娓娓道出她對孩子—世界各地，有著不同膚色的後代—人類的愛。提醒我們大地與人永不變的連結。在言語、工具或火之前，非洲母親的洞穴提供了庇護，以森林滋養眾生，雖然無法抵擋所有危險，但是，就像世界各地的媽媽一樣，她竭盡所能，窮盡一切，無條件給孩子。深沉的旋律，與抒情的水彩畫，深情地呼籲全世界的孩子記住他們的星球並愛護它…。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 colors 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 honors our shared history. Includes back matter with nonfiction information about human evolution and about the migration of Homo sapiens from Africa around the globe.
