My Grandfather's Song

I’m sure you’ve read aloud “My First Day” by Phùng Nguyên Quang and Huynh Kim Liên. Their latest creation “𝗠𝘆 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗳𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿’𝘀 𝗦𝗼𝗻𝗴” will captivate your readers even more. This book is a tribute to the first settlers of Vietnam, but it will stir the soul of all nature lovers who are cognizant of the insignificance of homo sapiens in the face of the untamed wild. The illustrations are out of the world and convey the emotion of reverence to mother nature. The author’s note is not to be missed, where the author and the illustrator make a connection with music and a case against idealising the ‘simple’ days of the yore.

Highly recommended for Grades 2 and above.
