DREAM ME A STORY | Like Dreams, Books Can Come True
Author: Themba Simelane
Dream Me a Story, picturebook explores the desperate yearning of a child to acquire literacy and the pressure from peers to do so. However, for children in impoverished neighborhoods, even the desire to own a picture book is a luxury they can only dream of.
The story follows a young girl, Fundi - who dreams of learning to read and write, and is helped by an imaginary lion king to fulfill this dream. The powerful and simple story-line, along with stunning illustrations, bring the tale to life.
This heart-warming story is inspired by the harsh reality of child illiteracy and child-headed homes in South Africa. The values that children can learn from this book include empathy, determination, resilience, consideration, and self-empowerment.
