What happens when a brother and sister who share a love as big as the sky must separate? In a small African village in Malawi, Prisca and her brother, Caleb, work together and play together, chasing each other as fast as they can. But when Caleb has to leave home to attend a good school, Prisca misses him terribly. Hoping to earn enough money to visit him, Prisca begs a local peddler to sell her crafts - but no one buys what she’s made. However, thanks to Prisca’s kindness and compassion, her dreams of reuniting with Caleb come true. This heartwarming story set in an African village shows that, with a little generosity, there’s always a way to come together.

Elizabeth Zunon was born in Albany, NY, and grew up in the Ivory Coast, West Africa. As a little girl, she loved to draw, paint, make up dances, and play dress-up; as she grew up, she didn't really change! Elizabeth now lives in Albany, where she draws, paints, silk-screens, sews, daydreams, and makes beaded jewelry. Her work is largely influenced by the people, places, and things from her childhood in the Ivory Coast.
