Nanou's Promise: A Journey Beyond Hauling Water
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. “How can I go to school when I spend so much time hauling water?” Nanou wonders. See how she plots a way to get clean water close to home so that she has time to attend school and learn to paint with a feather just like Grandma.
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.
