Violet Duncan: Life Is a Dance, Gebunden

Klappentext

National Book Award finalist Violet Duncan's lyrical text celebrates an Indigenous child's deep connection with her mother and with the world around her as she moves through the dance of life.

All around Little Leaf is lovely movement. On her arrival, the tall grasses sway as if to welcome her. When she learns to walk, she loves how the wind whips her hair while her strong legs let her explore. As she grows, surrounded by the wonders of nature, she can't help dancing in honor of a world filled with colorful tumbles of leaves, shimmering stars, and sparkling snowflakes. Buoyed by her mother's love and wisdom, she also dances for the ancestors who guide her on her journey and for those she has yet to meet, and revels in her mother's words: All of life is a glorious dance we share together.

Violet Duncan's uplifting text and Kelsey Mata Foote's gorgeous art bring to life the joy in greeting each day with fresh eyes, and reveling in the moment.
