Juma on Safari: The Tanzania Juma Stories (Kids' books from here and there) de Lisa Maria Burgess
DescripciĂłn - CrĂticas KIRKUS BOOK REVIEW: What would a trip to Grandmaâs house be like if you lived in Tanzania? Burgessâ (Jumaâs Dhow Race, 2013, etc.) young narrator, Juma, describes the experience. Juma and his sister, Sareeya, are eager to visit their bibi, or grandmother, over April vacation. Traveling from their home, Dar es Salaam, the largest city in Tanzania, to Bibiâs small village near Seronera is such a long trip it will take âtwo hundred napsâ before they arrive. The family piles into an old Corolla, and they make their way cross country, spotting Mount Kilimanjaro, Maasai herders, and all sorts of animalsâelephants, zebra, wildebeest, gazelle, warthogs, and giraffes. The Corolla breaks down on a wildlife preserve where Jumaâs mjomba (uncle) works, and Juma has a close encounter with a giraffe before his father and uncle can get the car fixed. The tone of the narrative is subdued. Juma is conversational, often chronicling his adventures without great fanfare. But thatâs also part of his charm. When Mjomba tells stories about the animals he has helped save on the preserve, Juma decides, âI will be a game warden when I get bigâfor sure!â But after camping out atop his uncleâs Land Rover and being woken up by giraffe drool, he changes his mind: âI will never, never be a wardenâthatâs for sure!â The siblingsâ journey conveys to young readers that Tanzania is very different from the United States, although some things, such as Jumaâs father making the family take quick bathroom breaks on the long drive, may seem very familiar to young road trippers. Guguâs illustrations beautifully depict the wildlife, especially the scene that shows Sareeyaâs near run-in with an elephant. Endnotes help readers place Tanzania and its cities on the map and define the words in Ki-Swahili that pepper the text. Burgess has created a likable narrator in a striking setting not often represented in picture books. Reseña del editor Juma and his family drive across Tanzania to visit his grandmother. Now eight years old, he and his young sister, Sareeya, enjoy adventures from Dar es Salaam across to the plains of the Serengeti. During the journey, they see Mt. Kilimanjaro and encounter an obstinate elephant, a drooling giraffe, and wrestling beetles. The story introduces northern Tanzania and ki-Swahili words for animals. The story is supplemented with a national map of the United Republic of Tanzania, a map of the continent of Africa, and a Swahili language glossary. BiografĂa del autor www.lisamariaburgess.com
