Beschreibung
While raising two "e;island babies,"e; whose first words were inspired by their tropical surroundings, the idea for Alphabet Island was born. While most children's vocabulary books reflect objects seen in northern climates, Alphabet Island honors the learning experience of children living on an island or traveling to one of Earth's treasured paradises.Then, in September 2017, Mother Nature gave this book a deeper purpose.Hurricane Irma was the most significant documented hurricane with the most widespread devastation in history. Irma, along with her hurricane sidekick Hurricane Maria, destroyed the livelihood of so many vulnerable island inhabitants. Entire families dislocated from everything they own in pursuit of their safety. Others stayed in their homes to brave the storms yet not all lived to tell about it. While entire communities mourned, homes, businesses, landscapes, and artifacts from these vibrant cultures washed away with the wind and rain. As a fellow island resident, I saw the life-altering chaos happening to our island neighbors and knew how I could provide assistance. At the same time, through the images and words of this book, Deborah and I could remind the readers of the eclectic existence that makes island living so special. Whether you live on an island, are a former island dweller, dream of living on an island, know someone who calls an island home, or favors island vacations, these beautiful destinations and their communities need your help. 50% of all profits from your purchase of Alphabet Island will be donated to assisting with the efforts to rebuild the cultures and wellbeing of those islanders affected by these natural disasters, especially the children.Buy a book.
