<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Eisha spends her day making clay shapes in her Mama's art studio. One shape in particular gives her a sense of joy and nostalgia-it reminds her of the time she picked lemons with her Papa. But when her clay turns to stone and breaks into pieces, Eisha feels a great sadness. Together with her Mama, she finds a unique way of moving forward and seeing her sadness in new light"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>In this modern-day fable about grief, diversity, and family connections, a young girl discovers the joys--and pain--of the creative process.</b> <p/>Eisha lives with her mother, a ceramic artist, who helps her make a special shape out of a piece of clay. The shape reminds Eisha of her father, of the ocean, of a lemon. As Eisha goes through her neighborhood doing errands with her mother, the piece of clay hardens and then shatters into pieces when Eisha taps it. In poignant and powerful words and pictures, Kenesha Sneed shows how Eisha learns to live with the sense of loss and of the joyful power of making something new out of what is left behind. Illustrated with Sneed's bold colors, graphic lines, and gestural textures, the book celebrates diversity and shares a gentle message that we all have the ability to heal and create.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>KENESHA SNEED is a multi-disciplinary artist and founder of Tactile Matter, an LA-based line of playful stoneware ceramics.
