"A bittersweet celebration of the everlasting bond between a mother and child through the changing phases of their lives. The thread between a mother and child starts to unwind when the child begins to walk, talk, and run. It stretches a little more on the first day of school. It swirls and unfurls the further the child gets from Mom's reach. One thing is constant that it always remains. Emily Joof channeled her Gambian upbringing to pen this story, which was inspired by a local tradition of leaving a thread with the child when a parent travels."--

Autorenporträt
Emily Joof is a Gambian--Malian--French Swedish author. Her children's books showcase and celebrate multiculturalism and the West African Diaspora. Emily's inspiration to write started from one of her greatest fears realized -- her daughter saying that she didn't want to be brown anymore because she wanted to be like 'everyone else'. Because of this experience, Emily knows firsthand how powerful representation in books can be.
