"An homage to the resourcefulness of children, whose ingenuity is their wealth. Caleb and his younger sister, Prisca, are inseparable. When Caleb comes down with malaria, Prisca brings him tea and nsima, a Malawian cornmeal dish. When Prisca can't carry the bucket on her head during chores, Caleb helps. So when Caleb leaves the village for school in Chimwe, Prisca misses him so much that she seeks help from the peddler Tewa Tewa. She makes painted rocks, paper-bead necklaces, and corn-husk dolls to earn travel money, but Tewa Tewa's customers don't buy them. Still, Prisca always welcomes the peddler warmly. When he visits with his newly repaired bike, he agrees to take Prisca and her mother to Chimwe. Based on a family Rose met on a medical mission, this quiet tale emphasizes the sacrifices families often make to educate their children. Zunon's full-bleed illustrations . . . give readers a sense of village life in Malawi and effectively show that familial love is not contingent upon material possessions. The book's final image, of Caleb reading to Prisca, also highlights the gift older siblings give younger siblings when they share their love of literacy. An author's note closes with URLs for organizations that fund girls' education in developing countries. A worthwhile read. (maps, glossary)" -- Kirkus

Synopsis
What happens when a brother and sister who share a love as big as the sky must separate? This heartwarming story set in an African village shows that with a little generosity, there's always a way to come together. In a small African village in Malawi, Prisca and her brother Caleb work together and play together, chasing each other as fast as they can. But when Caleb has to leave home to attend a good school, Prisca misses him terribly. Hoping to earn enough money to visit him, Prisca begs a local peddler to sell her crafts--but no one buys what she's made. However, thanks to Prisca's kindness and compassion, her dreams of reuniting with Caleb just may come true., Age range 3+ In a small African village in Malawi, Prisca and her brother Caleb work together and play together, chasing each other as fast as they can.

REPEAT BUYER FOR A REASON: It doesn't get any better on eBay...PERIOD! ITEM'S ARE AS DESCRIBED, PROPERLY PACKED, and SHIPPED PROMPTLY. Thank you for another "PERFECT" transaction! Look forward to more. :)dvd (#116494499655)

For comparison, I ordered other parts from other sellers a few days before this item, and I’m still waiting for those items. This seller is a true speed demon!1974 Lincoln Continental Mark IV Original Owner's Manual PB (#116140068656)
- i***o (171)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaThe cassette is as described--new, still factory sealed. It sounds perfect! The price was right for this vintage cassette. The shipping was prompt--soon after I ordered it--and the packaging was secure, there were no cracks in the case. I would be glad to buy from this seller again. Recommended.Everly Brothers - The Very Best Of The Everly Brothers Cass, Album Warner Bros. (#116431916834)
