Gizo - Gizo! A Tale from the Zongo Lagoon
Author: Emily Williamson & students of the Quranic School in Cape Coast
Delightfully illustrated, this lyrical and timely story-fable reveals the interconnectedness of life – and that we are responsible for our environment because it belongs to all of us. Through the story of a greedy spider who carelessly pollutes the lake, thereby damaging lives and his community, the reader is shown the impact of water pollution. The enduring friendship of the tortoise, frog and spider, illustrates the power of friendship in shaping attitudes and behaviour. The story of the spider finally coming to understand why he is also responsible for nature’s well-being, clearly illustrates the message that we all need to look after our planet, regardless of who we are. The book will appeal to readers of all ages.
