Tales of the World Yatandou
Fields of yellows-for the morning sky, the stretches of desert, onion fields-suggest the inescapable heat, and the very air seems to undulate. Sylvada also shows Yatandou mastering the unyielding setting: in his first view of Yatandou, she appears engulfed by the landscape, but as the story progresses to a hopeful conclusion, the pictures grow more intimate, culminating in the touching close-up portrait that concludes the book. 32 Pages Ages 6-10
