En route ! nous propose un regard contemplatif et tout en poésie sur les chemins qui jalonnent nos vies. Sur…
les voies que l’on choisit et sur les routes que l’on prend. Une invitation à nous arrêter et à profiter pleinement de notre environnement et de tous ces moments qui forment notre quotidien et qui bâtissent nos souvenirs. Oriane Smith signe un album poétique sur le temps qui passe et sur les moments qui font en sorte que nous soyons qui nous sommes. Un album en toute simplicité mis en images par Chloloula qui donne vie à nos routes, à nos villes et aux territoires que nous fréquentons, à l’aide de collages riches en détails. Elle s’amuse à parsemer les illustrations de petits éléments ou de personnages qu’on va recroiser un peu plus tard dans l’album, comme ces gens que l’on croise plus d’une fois dans la vie sans toujours le savoir. Une belle initiation au voyage et à l’art de prendre son temps.

Five-year-old Arinze and his older sister Cheta wait impatiently for school to end. Mommy and Daddy have told them this…
year they’re going to visit Africa. Arinze and Cheta have never visited Africa, but they’ve grown up listening to their parents talk about the wonders of the great continent. Starting in Kenya, Arinze’s family travels to ten African countries, demonstrating how vibrant and multifaceted the African landscape and cultures really are. They get to go on safari, gaze with wonder on Victoria Falls and Mount Kilimanjaro, and explore the continent’s architectural and historical wonders. The best part of the vacation comes at the end though, when they get to visit their grandfather in his village in Nigeria. There, the family’s connection to Africa is strongest. Both Arinze and Cheta discover a new pride in their roots—and a better understanding of where they came from. Illustrated with vibrant photographs of the sights, animals, and places Arinze and Cheta see on their vacation, My Africa Vacation teaches children of all backgrounds of Africa’s diversity and richness—and encourages them to one day take their own trips to a continent unlike any other.

An iceberg shears from a glacier and begins a journey that takes it through Antarctica’s seasons. Follow the iceberg in…
the spring as it watches penguins trek across the ice to their winter homes and senses krill stirring underneath the ice. With summer comes more life: the iceberg sees humpback whales spiral and orca gather. And the iceberg moves too, ever shrinking as the sun softens its edges and undersea currents wash it from below. When autumn arrives with cooling temperatures, the sea changes and the iceberg is trapped in the ice for the winter freeze. Then spring returns and the iceberg drifts into a sheltered bay and falls, at the end of its life cycle. But if you think this is the end of the journey, look closer — out in the ocean, an iceberg shears from a glacier and settles to the sea, beginning the process anew. Ocean, sky, snow and ice dance a delicate dance in this evocative portrayal of the life cycle of an iceberg. The poetic text and beautiful illustrations make this a unique nonfiction offering for young readers. This book ends with an author’s note explaining the effects of climate change on the Arctic and Antarctic regions, as well as a map and a glossary.

Lalla lives in the Muslim country of Mauritania, and more than anything, she wants to wear a malafa, the colorful…
cloth Mauritanian women, like her mama and big sister, wear to cover their heads and clothes in public. But it is not until Lalla realizes that a malafa is not just worn to show a woman's beauty and mystery or to honor tradition--a malafa for faith--that Lalla's mother agrees to slip a long cloth as blue as the ink in the Koran over Lalla's head, under her arm, and round and round her body. Then together, they pray. An author's note and glossary are included in the back of the book.
