Summary
Summary
Even long ago, there was day and night. The day was full of light and warmth, and people and animals alike rejoiced in the rays of the sun. But what happens when people get greedy and take the Night for granted? What will become of the Earth and those who dwell upon it? Katherine Jumbe masterfully brings the world of the Malawian savanna to life, telling a rhythmic tale perfect for bedtime. Rich illustrations by Shana Dixon depict Baby Mwana and her older Sister Alekachawo as they trek up the great Sky Road to bring the heavens back into balance.Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“In Jumbe’s thought-provoking debut..the sisters—the fable’s emotional center—offer a smart counterweight to the animals’ antics.” —Publishers Weekly
