Two Weeks One Summer

$12.95
In Two Weeks One Summer Giftus brilliantly captures the richness of life before the pace of life speeded up, and before that time when our children spend more time sitting on the couch punching away at their devices with very little live interaction with other humans. It is a poignant reminder of a time when families and communities bonded together through simple, yet meaningful activities which promoted our children's social development.
Through the eyes of young Peter, Giftus lets you experience the excitement of summer, at a time when families couldn't always afford to take a plane to visit a North American country. What did they do hen? Go with Peter on his trip to another village and experience life in its sweetest form. Laugh with him, see the houses as they looked back then, smell and taste the cocoa tea, hear the expressions that if you're of that generation will remind you so much of your parents, and just take that trip down memory lane.
And even if you're a generation or two away from the story, discover the sweet life of a time before cell phones. What did children in the Caribbean do before cell phones, the Internet, and digital media? What did your parents do? In Two Weeks One Summer Giftus has beautifully preserved the story of the life of Caribbean people and provides an excellent tale for class discussion and expansion, at the first and second form levels in the Caribbean, on what held communities together and what we can take from it.
