Danielle Renee Wright: Tiwa and the Talking Drum, Gebunden

Klappentext

Tiwa and the Talking Drum In a village where stories are shared beneath the stars, young Tiwa longs to be heard. Though she listens closely to the griots and treasures their tales, she struggles to believe her own voice matters. When the village's cherished Talking Drum-said to carry the voices of ancestors-suddenly goes missing, the laughter and spirit of the village fade.

Guided by courage, kindness, and a gentle butterfly companion, Tiwa journeys beyond what she thought possible. Along the way, she faces moments of doubt, wonder, and self-discovery that challenge her fears and reveal her inner strength. Through honesty and heart, Tiwa learns that true power comes not from size or age, but from believing in oneself.

Tiwa and the Talking Drum is a beautifully illustrated children's story inspired by cultural storytelling traditions. It celebrates bravery, self-expression, and the importance of honoring one's voice. This uplifting tale encourages young readers to embrace who they are and reminds them that every voice-no matter how small-has the power to shape the world. Perfect for: Children ages 4-8 Parents, educators, and librarians Read-aloud storytimes and classroom discussions Readers who enjoy culturally inspired folktales and confidence-building stories
