Bücher von Jordan Scott

The special relationship between a child and his grandmother is depicted in this sumptuous book by an award-winning team.Inspired by memories of his childhood, Jordan Scott's My Baba's Garden explores the sights, sounds and smells experienced by a child spending time with their beloved grandmother (Baba). He visits her every day and finds her hidden in the steam of boiling potatoes, a hand holding a beetroot, a leg opening a cupboard, an elbow closing the fridge, humming like a night full of bugs when she cooks. This is a stunning ode to the special relationship between grandmother and grandchild, needing few words, but rooted deeply in ritual, touch and feeling.

Ein Bilderbuch wie eine zärtliche Erinnerung. Für Kinder ab 4 Jahren und Erwachsene. Dieses Buch zeigt eindrücklich, wie wertvoll die Zeit ist, die man als Kind mit seiner Großmutter verbringen darf. Momente, die für immer bleiben: Die gemeinsame Zeit im Garten, die zahlreichen Besuche bei der Großmutter: Wie sie sich ein ums andere Mal im Dampf kochender Kartoffeln versteckt. Wie sie beim Essen kein Wort spricht und das warme Gefühl der Geborgenheit dennoch allgegenwärtig ist.
