Book Description
Hana's Year children's illustrated book marketing by Carol Talley
HANA'S YEAR
By Carol Talley
In a timeless corner of Japan, a little monkey learns to resist peer pressure. Hana is one year old - old enough to get into lots of trouble, especially when she falls under the bad influence of Tampopo, the most mischievous of all the monkeys. When Tampopo leads Hana to betray the trust of her friend, the boy Kenji, Hana realizes it is time to rely on her own judgment - even if it means being alone. What happens next will charm and enchant readers of all ages.
Luminously illustrated by Itoko Maeno in her native Japan, it's aglow with the cherry blossoms of spring and the love of a little monkey for her Mother.
HANA'S YEAR is one of a series of 25 breathtakingly illustrated children's books, each with an animal protagonist, a compelling geographic location, an important life skills message and multicultural enrichment materials.
These books are cleverly and skillfully written by published authors with a high level of literary talent and wit. The books have been proofed and re-proofed for the most exacting standards of accuracy in grammar, punctuation and fact checking. They have been reviewed…pre-publication…by teachers and librarians for relevance and the power of the message.
But all seriousness aside, it's a very fun and exciting story, gracefully camouflaging the powerful character education message.
