Die Boek
Hoog teen die horison van die Afrika-vlaktes staan ’n boom van wonder en wysheid – die kremetartboom.
Sy takke beskerm, sy wortels voed, en sy groot, stil teenwoordigheid bring lewe aan alles rondom hom
Een vir een kom die diere nader: olifante, kameelperde, uile, visarende, impalas en selfs miere. Almal vind ’n tuiste onder sy reusekroon. Hier, tussen skadu en sonlig, ontdek hulle iets dieper: die krag van saamwees, die vreugde van deel, en die vrede van behoort.
Met liriese taal en asemrowende illustrasies bring “Onder die kremetartboom” hulde aan die skoonheid van Afrika en die harmonie van die natuur.
’n Hartverwarmende verhaal oor lewe, liefde en die eenheid wat alles verbind onder die boom van lewe self.
The Book
This is the Afrikaans translation of the award-winning title “Under the Baobab Tree”. On a hot summer’s day, the animals wandered, they roamed and explored, they galloped and soared, in search for the perfect tree for their needs.
Many trees were falling one by one, from the force and destruction of what the elephants had done.
And some of the trees that had stood the test, had patches of bark missing from the rhino’s unrest.
And looking more closely at the top of the trees, sat fish eagles in waiting to soar and fly free.
Will the animals find the perfect tree?
