Semillas de cambio: Sembrando un camino hacia la paz (Seeds of Change: Planting a Path to Peace)
by Jen Cullerton JohnsonJohn Steptoe Award for New Talent in Illustrations - American Library Association (ALA)Una biografía ilustrada de la científica Wangari Maathai, la primera mujer africana (y la primera ambientalista) en ganar el Premio Nobel de la Paz por su trabajo sembrando árboles en su Kenia natal. A picture book biography of scientist Wangari Maathai, the first African woman--and first environmentalist--to win a Nobel Peace Prize for her work planting trees in her native Kenya.Cuando era niña en Kenia, a Wangari le enseñaron a respetar la naturaleza. Creció amando la tierra, las plantas y los animales que la rodeaban, desde los gigantescos árboles mugumo que su pueblo, Kikuyu, veneraban hasta los diminutos renacuajos que nadaban en el río. Aunque la mayoría de las niñas kenianas no recibieron educación, a Wangari, curiosa y trabajadora, se le permitió ir a la escuela. Allí su mente brotó como una semilla. Destacó en las ciencias y continuó sus estudios en los Estados Unidos. Después de regresar a casa, Wangari abrió un camino a través de Kenia, utilizando su conocimiento y compasión para promover los derechos de sus compatriotas y ayudar a salvar la tierra, un árbol a la vez. Semillas de cambio: Sembrando un camino hacia la paz le da vida a la historia poderosa de Wangari Maathai, la primera mujer africana y ambientalista en ganar un Premio Nobel de la Paz. Una narrativa cautivadora e imágenes vibrantes pintan un retrato sólido de esta inspiradora defensora de la tierra y de los derechos de las mujeres. As a young girl in Kenya, Wangari was taught to respect nature. She grew up loving the land, plants, and animals that surrounded her-from the giant mugumo trees her people, the Kikuyu, revered to the tiny tadpoles that swam in the river. Although most Kenyan girls were not educated, Wangari, curious and hardworking, was allowed to go to school. There, her mind sprouted like a seed. She excelled at science and went on to study in the United States. After returning home, Wangari blazed a trail across Kenya, using her knowledge and compassion to promote the rights of her countrywomen and to help save the land, one tree at a time. Seeds of Change: Planting a Path to Peace brings to life the empowering story of Wangari Maathai, the first African woman, and environmentalist, to win a Nobel Peace Prize. Engaging narrative and vibrant images paint a robust portrait of this inspiring champion of the land and of women's rights.
