Alyssa and I have worked really hard to learn Haitian Creole. We still have a lot to learn, but can easily get by when we’re in Haiti now! First of all, this cover tho!! How stunning is this?? @kish.scottkishstudio is the amazing artist for this book, please go check out his page!
You Belong To Me, Se Pou Mwen Ou Ye by Gloria Guignard Board. This is a beautiful story about a girl and her mother. The daughter starts to question the hard work she does each day along side her mother in Haiti. The mom explains that she is teaching her lessons that will help her in life, but she is also creating a bond with her. This endearing story discusses the special relationship between mother and daughter.
This is a unique book, it’s half Haitian Creole and half English, it’s such an amazing learning tool for someone learning this language.
We are extremely grateful to @haitiangloria for all of her amazing lessons and tools to help us learn! Gloria even came out to Seattle from Missouri to do a Haitian Creole boot camp with us, where we packed in a whole bunch of learning into one long weekend!
Thank you @haitiangloria for gifting us a copy of this gorgeous book!
