Dreams of Freedom



Dreams of Freedom In words and Pictures has a variety of illustrations to go with the quotes that have been selected from people who have fought for different kinds of freedom. Right to education from Malala Yousafzai is definitely easier to relate for kids. In that vein, I am thinking that a quote from Emelin aged 15 from Guatamela who spoke at the United Nations would be more inspiring for kids to fight for their rights. The Little Dutch Boy who saved Holland was captivating to me as a child, as it was a heroic act by child (spoiler - even if its a myth).
The illustrations push me to think of how I would put my favourite quotes and words in pictures.
The quotes meld into the pictures, be it as an outline of wings that a tortured handicapped person wishes for or like a trapeze of people flying free. scrap book effect. Poster style. Story style.
