Une histoire extraordinaire qui célèbre l'art et l'origine même de la narration!
Dans ce nouveau livre unique et captivant, un enfant chasseur-cueilleur de l'âge de pierre suit sa grand-mère lors d'une expédition de chasse dans une grotte profonde. Surmontant sa peur d'être avalé par l'obscurité, l'enfant découvre les animaux peints qui prennent vie sur les parois de la grotte et participe à la création d'une nouvelle histoire familiale, en laissant ses marques sous forme d'empreintes de mains. Inspiré par cette expérience magique, l'enfant choisit de devenir un chasseur d'histoires, transportant les histoires de la communauté au fur et à mesure qu'elle se déplace.
À l'aide des illustrations en pâte à modeler qui la caractérisent, l'autrice et artiste primée Barbara Reid nous livre un conte magnifique et philosophique sur la découverte et les racines de la créativité.
An extraordinary story that celebrates the art and origin of storytelling itself!
In this unique and captivating new book, a curious, stone age hunter-gatherer child follows Grandmother on an unusual hunting expedition into a deep cave. Overcoming fear of being swallowed by the dark, the child experiences the painted animals that spring to life on the cave walls and takes part in painting a new family story, leaving his marks in the form of hand prints. Inspired by this magical experience, the child chooses to become a story hunter, carrying the community's stories as the family moves on.
Using her signature Plasticine artwork, award-winning author and artist Barbara Reid delivers a beautiful and philosophical tale of discovery and the roots of creativity.
