About the Book

See below for English description.

Un grand récipient repose sur la tête de la princesse Gie Gie, telle une couronne. L'eau potable se fait rare dans son royaume aux couleurs chaudes. Chaque matin, elle se lève avant le soleil pour marcher jusqu'au puits. Lorsqu'elle revient à la maison, après avoir fait bouillir l'eau pour la boire et pour nettoyer les vêtements de sa famille, Gie Gie pense à ce voyage que demain amènera. Et elle rêve. Elle rêve d'un jour où son village africain aura une eau claire et limpide.

Inspiré par l'enfance au Burkina Faso de l'activiste Georgie Badiel, La princesse de l'eau claire rassemble les talents exceptionnels de Susan Verde et Peter H. Reynolds dans un album touchant aux magnifiques illustrations.

With its wide sky and warm earth, Princess Gie Gie's kingdom is a beautiful land. But clean drinking water is scarce in her small African village. Every morning, she rises before the sun to make the long journey to the well. Instead of a crown, she wears a heavy pot to collect the water. After the voyage home, after boiling the water to drink and clean with, Gie Gie thinks of the trip that tomorrow will bring. And she dreams. She dreams of a day when her village will have cool, crystal-clear water of its own.

Inspired by the childhood of Burkina Faso-born model Georgie Badiel, The Water Princess brings together the exceptional talents of Susan Verde and Peter H. Reynolds in this stunning picture book.

Original title: The Water Princess
