Groundwood/House of Anansi

The lesson of intercultural cooperation is subtle but compelling. This introduction to an important holiday and sharing will be a welcome addition to many collections.

Despite a disjointed path—from the sensory exploration to the meditation on wolves—this additional purchase may encourage little ones to let their imaginations run wild while encountering the world.

Anyone who has cultivated a dream that defies societal demands and cultural expectations will appreciate this affecting story of a young girl’s struggle to achieve her creative aspirations. Recommended for larger collections to supplement artist biographies.
