The stories of Mam and Aya immerse us in a warm, gentle world where a grandmother shares far more than words with her granddaughter: she passes on her culture, her memories and her values. Through their moments of closeness, a precious bond is woven between generations, made of love, transmission and discovery. These stories invite children and adults alike to come together, share, and rediscover the richness of their origins and family history.
This book is a universal medium where every child can find a part of themselves, while discovering a little of her Cape Verdean island, her history and her heart. A book like a treasure where words remain, even when voices fade away, to keep connecting families across time.
