<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Simply written and set in a small, modern-day Kenyan village, this read-aloud is sprinkled with Kiswahili words and explanations of African customs as it describes the daily life of a Kenyan child. Full color.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Introduce young readers to the life of a Kenyan child in this sweetly imagined, whimsically illustrated picture book.</b> <p/>Imagine you live in a small Kenyan village, where the sun rises over tall trees filled with doves. You wake to the sound of a rooster's crow, instead of an alarm clock. Your afternoon snack is a tasty bug plucked from the sky, instead of an apple. And rather than kicking a soccer ball across a field, you kick a homemade ball of rags down a dusty road. <p/>But with so much going on around you, it's just as easy for a Kenyan and American child to forget what your mama asked you to do!<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Kelly Cunnane lived in Africa for many years but now resides in Beals, Maine. <i>For You Are a Kenyan Child</i> is her first book for children. <p/>Ana Juan is the illustrator of <i>Elena's Serenade</i> by Campbell Geeslin, which <i>School Library Journal</i> called "a fascinating adventure that explores issues of gender roles, self-confidence, and the workings of an artist's heart" in a starred review. Her paintings have appeared on the cover of <i>The</i> <i>New Yorker, </i>on book and album jackets, on film festival posters, and in several European magazines. She is also the illustrator of <i>Frida</i> by Jonah Winter and the author and illustrator of <i>The Night Eater.</i> She lives in Madrid, Spain.
