Malaika’s Costume / Kinderbuch Englisch / Nadia L. Hohn / Irene Luxbacher
Malaikas Mutter kann ihr kein Karnevalskostüm kaufen – wird sie trotzdem bei der Parade tanzen können?
Für Kinder ab 3 Jahren.
--------------------
Malaika’s mother can’t buy her a carnival costume — will she still be able to dance in the parade?
It’s Carnival time. The first Carnival since Malaika’s mother moved to Canada to find a good job and provide for Malaika and her grandmother. Her mother promised she would send money for a costume, but when the money doesn’t arrive, will Malaika still be able to dance in the parade?
Disappointed and upset at her grandmother’s hand-me-down costume, Malaika leaves the house, running into Ms. Chin, the tailor, who offers Malaika a bag of scrap fabric. With her grandmother’s help, Malaika creates a patchwork rainbow peacock costume, and dances proudly in the parade.
A heartwarming story about family, community and the celebration of Carnival, Nadia Hohn’s warm and colloquial language and Irene Luxbacher’s vibrant collage-style illustrations make this a strikingly original picture book.
