Some of you might know that I am homeschooling our two older boys (2nd and 4th grade) this school year. With a baby in tow. It’s... adventurous... but we are trying to make the best of it. One of the advantages of homeschooling is the freedom of topics we learn about. And this school year, in our “art class”, we are learning only about artists of color. We read a book about each artist we learn about, we research their work, look at pictures and documentaries, and then the boys create something inspired by the artist. Zaha Hadid is last artist we learned about in the first semester of homeschool. I love that I can add architects into the sea of painters, because architecture is art too.
The boys loved her story and admired the structures she designed around the world. From buildings to airports to bridges, she was innovative and creative. A true artist. A visionary. And a spectacular woman. Iraqi woman 🇮🇶
They each designed a unique building inspired by her. Hoping to visit some of her buildings in the near future.

Lange bin ich nun immer wieder um die farbenfrohen Bände der „Little People, Big Dreams“-Reihe herumgeschlichen... erst wortwörtlich in der Buchhandlung, dann virtuell... nun endlich „musste“ eins mit - und ich bin wieder absolut begeistert! Sowohl von den Illustrationen der Wahl-New Yorkerin Hanna Barczyk, die einen unverwechselbaren Stil prägt, als auch den Texten der spanischen Autorin Maria Isabel Sánchez Vegara, die von Svenja Becker übersetzt wurden. Ich finde es sehr beeindruckend, wie das Leben von Philippine Bausch, genannt Pina, in so wenigen Sätzen (etwa 3 pro Doppelseite) so treffend zusammengefasst wurde; und das in einer Ausdrucksweise, der auch Kinder ab dem Vorschulalter sehr gut folgen können. 
Sowohl ihr künstlerischer Werdegang wird beschrieben als auch die Bedeutung des Tanzes im Allgemeinen, der ihr als Sprache diente. Erfolgreich war sie trotz - oder wegen?!- ihrer selbstbewussten Einstellung: „Doch Pina war es nicht wichtig, anderen zu gefallen. Sie wollte nur ehrlich zu sich selber sein.“ Eine wichtige Botschaft für die kleinen Leser bzw Zuhörer; ebenso wie der letzte Satz: „Sie wusste, was auch immer du tust, kann gelingen, wenn du die Wahrheit in deinem Herzen suchst.“ 
Durch den Verzicht auf zu viele Details -sowohl in den klaren Zeichnungen als auch im knappen Text- ist das Buch bereits für jüngere Kinder gut verständlich; gibt den älteren ein Basiswissen über die berühmte Choreografin- und ist für Erwachsene mit dem hübschen Hardcover und dem hochwertigen Textileinband schon ein Stück Kunst ... für dieses Buch sortiere ich gern mein Regal um 😊
Mit dieser Serie wird es den Kindern ganz klar gezeigt: glaube an dich selbst und an deine Träume; dann kannst du großes erreichen!

Doczekaliśmy się czterech kolejnych książek w serii Mali Wielcy (‘Little people, big dreams’ w oryginale)!🎉❤️
Bardzo podobają mi się nowe ‘nazwiska’: Astrid Lindgren, Audrey Hepburn, Martin Luther King i Steve Jobs.
Jako pierwszą pokażę Wam tę o Astrid Lindgren, ponieważ to jedna z moim ulubionych autorek (a w ‘młodości’ ulubiona) i w zasadzie to dzięki niej pokochałam książki📚💛
〰️ Astrid była dziewczynką, która nigdy nie chciała dorosnąć. Uwielbiała zabawy, a gdy odkryła książki, od razu je pokochała. 
Gdy była starsza, stała się buntowniczką, to na przykład ona jako pierwsza w rodzinnym mieście ścięła włosy na krótko🙂 
Wcześnie zaczęła też wymyślać własne opowiadania. 
Dla swojej córki, Karin, stworzyła postać Pippi Pończoszanki, dziewczynki mądrej i szalonej, którą teraz znają dzieci na całym świecie. 
Pippi i inne książki, przyniosły Astrid sławę i uwielbienie milionów dzieci❤️〰️
Tekst jest ciekawy i zawiera ważne wątki z życia autorki (w wersji dla najmłodszych😉), ale książka skupia się jedynie na Pippi, a przecież Astrid napisała wiele wspaniałych książek (na przykład moje ukochane ‘Dzieci z Bullerbyn’). Brakuje mi tu jakiejś wzmianki o innych tytułach 🤷🏻‍♀️
Całość jest bardzo kolorowa, co mi się podoba, i ładnie wydana. 
Gdyby było więcej informacji o innych książkach, to była by idealna, ale i tak mi się podoba🙂
P. S. W polskiej wersji językowej ukazały się już książki o Marii Skłodowskiej – Curie, Fridzie Kahlo, Stephenie Hawkingu i Coco Chanel.
Format: 200x250
Tekst: Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara
Ilustracje: Linzie Hunter
Tłumaczenie: Julia Tokarczyk

Happy birthday MLK! 

 Martin Luther King Jr. was an American Baptist minister and activist who became the most visible spokesperson and leader in the civil rights movement from 1955 until his assassination in 1968.

 King was born on January 15, 1929 in Atlanta. But the King holiday is marked every year on the third Monday in January, this year it will fall on the 18th... 

 The holiday honors the total legacy of King; it's purpose focuses on the issue of civil rights; highlights the use of nonviolence to promote change; and calls people into public service.

 I wonder what he would have thought about the current protests for racial justice happening now.
 We've come so far, but we still have so much further to go...

 Black Lives Still Matter.

LITTLE PEOPLE, BIG DREAMS: JOHN LENNONE by Maria Isabel Sánchez Vegara and Octavia Bromell // [AD-PR Gift] The LPBD books are an ever expanding series and I’m so delighted to see their roster of inspirational men and woman increase every year! I’m particularly excited about the Mary Anning and Malala books that are due in 2021. They are such a great way to talk about significant figures in history who have contributed to music, science, human rights and so many more facets of society.

As a resident of Liverpool, the stories and music of The Beatles are woven into the very fabric of our streets and so I loved seeing them represented in this lovely and simple story of John Lennon. From his upbringing in Liverpool to the origin story of The Beatles themselves and the love stories and music in between, the story of John Lennon is beautifully illustrated and has the simplistic yet significant storytelling charm of all the LPBD books. A lovely read for any mini Beatles fans!
