Description

Winner at the 2015 International Latino Book Awards. Mariama embarks on a journey towards a new life and a new realization-her roots will always remain in her and that differences can bring people closer.

Everything's new for Mariama after a long journey by car, train, boat, and plane from Africa. She's going to discover a world where the streets, her school, and the food are all different. But what about the people? She will have to work hard to learn the language that moon-white children speak, but with the help of her new friends Hugo and Paula, Mariama will discover that, despite all the different customs and traditions that exist between them, there is something that brings them closer beyond all the differences: the pleasure of playing and laughing.

A beautiful tale about identity, the process of integration, and solidarity. Are you ready to meet Mariama and play with her.

  • About the Author

    The award-winning author Jeronimo Cornelles combines his work as a writer with the stage management, performance, and artistic direction of the theatre company Bramant Teatre and the artistic direction of the Russafa Escenica theatre festival. He has written several plays which have been published in different collections and won numerous prizes, some of which have been translated and performed in countries including Italy, France, and Argentina.

    Nivola Uya is a Spanish award-winning illustrator and visual artist, with a degree in Environmental Sciences. She loves nature as much as illustration and, whenever possible, combines both worlds. She makes illustrations for books, campaigns, audiovisual, and murals, as well as illustration and creativity workshops in many corners of the world, convinced that the creative process brings out the best in people and makes us more sensitive.

    With a palette of luminous colors and a magical-realistic style, she likes to capture possible and optimistic worlds, that spread love and hope. She has more than a dozen illustrated albums published in English, Spanish, Catalan, Portuguese, German and Swahili, distinguished with several international awards, such as the Silver Medal at the Moonbeam Children's Book Awards for Best Illustrator, and Best Illustrated Album Award at the International Latino Book Awards and the selection Seal Chair of UNESCO for Reading.

    Will definitely use again!

    Great experience and I have zero concerns. They communicated through the shipping process and if there was any hiccups in it, they let me know. Books arrived in perfect condition as well as being fairly priced. 10/10 recommend. I will definitely shop here again!

    The shipping was just superior

    The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

    Found a hard to get book…

    Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
