Nanou's Promise: A Journey Beyond the ABCs
ABOUT:
Nanou wants to paint, just as Grandma Kaye does, with a painting feather. But Grandma says Nanou must go to school before learning to paint. Come on an adventure while Nanou learns her ABCs. You'll learn about Burkina Faso and the Gurunsi people of Tiébélé. This is the second book in the Nanou's Promise series.
This author-paper collage illustrated 32 page color children’s picture book is inspired by herARTS in Action's work in Burkina Faso for access to clean water, sanitation, and education in the village of Tiébélé. Since water and education are the story’s inspiration, 25 percent of profits from the sale of this book are donated to herARTS in Action for programming in Burkina Faso.
