Paperback. Condition: New. Bilingual edition. Simultaneously occupying past, present, and future, Black Stars escapes the confines of time and space, suffusing image with memory, abstraction with meaning, and darkness with abundant light. In these masterful translations, the poems sing out with the kind of wisdom that comes to those who have lived through war, traveled far, and seen a great deal. While the past may evoke village life and the present a postmodern urban world, the poems often exhibit a dual consciousness that allows the poet to reside in both at once. From the universe to the self, we see Lap's landscapes grow wider before they focus: black stars receding to dark stairways, infinity giving way to now. Lap's universe is boundless, yes, but also "just big enough / To have four directions / With just enough wind, rain, and trouble to last.".

Paperback. Condition: new. Lehan, Kathryn; Ngo, Lap (illustrator). Paperback. Let's face it, we're all different. Our Differences Define Us is three separate poems about being different: I Only See, is about seeing things that make a person unique as a person and not the physical handicaps that make someone look or act differently. We're All Weird, reassures us that everybody is weird - whether you have glasses, a big nose, wild hair, wear the wrong clothes, have a funny voice or any other thing that makes you feel different. X-Ray Vision, explores what it would be like if we had x-ray vision. What would the world be like if we only saw what was on the inside, instead of the outside? Our Differences Define Us Promise is a pledge to live from the inside out and to be different - which is perfectly normal! Be Weird. Be Odd. Be Different.

Paperback. Condition: new. Ngo, Lap (illustrator). Paperback. Water in Africa is essential for life for both humans and animals. Humans use river water for drinking, cooking, bathing, washing clothes and watering crops. River of Life illustrates how children play an integral role in the family's survival by making a long, often dangerous, trek every day to fetch water from the river. The story begins with the dry season (where water is scarce) and concludes with the restoration of life as the rain brings the wet season. River of Life is the second book in the Beautiful Africa series. The allure of Africa calls us all. The Beautiful Africa series mixes the simplicity of the people with the complexity of the various cultures while maintaining the authenticity of the harsh reality of life in Africa. It reminds us all of our deepest roots as human beings. Ms. Lehan and Mr. Ngo love sharing their fascination with Africa, particularly with children. This item is printed on demand.
