Publisher Description: Best friends Sirus and Bubba fit together like saltfish and bake. That is until Charlie Sand moves into town. All of a sudden Bubba is doing exciting things with a new friend and Sirus doesn't fit in. Can Sirus find a way to share Bubba's friendship with Charlie Sand? Set on the island of Trinidad and aimed at children aged six-ten years old, The Blessing of Charlie Sand is a heart-warming story of friendship. Praise for The Blessing of Charlie Sand "Kids will love both story and pictures in this warm tale of friendship and magic." -Olive Senior, author of Anna Carries Water and many other titles. "The Blessing of Charlie Sand will inspire children to trust in the wisdom that comes from both beyond and within. The emotionally measured text and the immediacy of Bootman's understated illustrations draw the reader in." -Summer Edward, children's book editor and founder of Anansesem. |
