![]() Ninguno Actualmente no hay Conversaciones sobre este libro. ![]() Freedom Soup is about a literal soup but it is also symbolic. The soup symbolizes the character's freedom. It is a grandma and her granddaughter making soup that there ancestors had made to celebrate their freedom. The grandma tells the story of how they fought for their freedom and the illustrations show the memories while having the pot of soup and the aroma remain in the bottom of the picture, always there and ready to eat. The recipe for freedom soup is even given in the last page of the book. The images in this story are so passionate that even though this did not happen to me and I never knew much about Haiti's history I feel the passion and all the feelings that they are feeling in the story. The writing and the imagery and the visuals invoke feeling in the reader on every page and that's what makes this story so moving and meaningful. As if the pictures were not vibrant enough, Tami Charles doctors up her pages with descriptive, vivid language as the main characters doctor up their freedom soup. Her use of hyphenated words and adjectives made me feel like I was in the kitchen next to Ti Gran and Belle. Like I was immersed in their culture, celebrating Haitian independence. I love how their history was told in a story format passed down from Ti Gran to Belle to the readers. Food was shared, celebrations were shared, and most importantly their story of slavery to freedom was shared. Charles extends his invitation to this celebration as he gives us the recipe of freedom soup on the last page. ![]() sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

"Every year, Haitians all over the world ring in the new year by eating a special soup, a tradition dating back to the Haitian Revolution. This year, Ti Gran is teaching Belle how to make the soup -- Freedom Soup -- just like she was taught when she was a little girl. Together, they dance and clap as they prepare the holiday feast, and Ti Gran tells Belle about the history of the soup, the history of Belle's family, and the history of Haiti, where Belle's family is from."-- No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
