Gugu’s House: Review of the Children’s Book
May 10, 2008 by Myscha Theriault
In this book by Catherine Stock, a young girl named Kukamba enjoys spending time helping her grandmother, Gugu, with her art.
What I loved most about this title is how it demonstrates so clearly the contribution art can have in our everyday lives, as well as how powerful the concept of temporary art can be. In celebration of the African nation of Zimbabwe, this book also includes a glossary of story terms. Worth including in your multicultural library or as an asset for your African studies unit.
