Produktinformationen zu „Lina, the Duiker & the Dragonfly (ePub)“
Lina accompanies her grandfather into the forest to search for healing plants when they meet up with a game warden who tells them about poachers' snares that he has discovered. Lina is told to wait and sit on a rock while her grandfather, Pa'Tuusi, and the warden look for the snares. She is frightened of being alone; she can't 'talk' to the animals the way her grandfather does, but then a dragonfly attracts her attention and she follows it to find a little duiker caught in a snare. She loses her way, but elephants help her and the duiker find their way back to her grandfather. The story is intriguing, with a slight amount of tension to keep it interesting.
Says author Lisa Steyn: 'South Africa has so many cultures that have deep historic connections to the land and nature, and that is what inspired me to tell a contemporary story of a little girl of Khoekhoe descent, who's grandfather still knows some of the ancient ways ... the nearly inexplicable connection that the First People of this land had with their environment, and some still have, seems to me like pure natural magic.'

Autoren-Porträt von Lisa Steyn
Lisa Steyn was raised in Orkney, a mining town in North West Province, where her mother often read stories to her and encouraged her to draw. The magic of stories about nature and animals moved her deeply. This love of nature led her to complete Level 1 Field Guide Training in order to learn more about this enchanting wilderness. Thereafter she started an organic gardening service in order to encourage people to live more lightly on the earth.Her focus turned back to pictures and stories in 2012 when she attended the CCIBA Creative Workshop Program in Children's Book Illustration and joined the SCBWI (Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators). More recently she has illustrated school handbooks, readers and a self-published children's book.
