They also learned to use their imagination and dream big. They were able to let go of the things from their past and free themselves for much more exciting things to come in their future. The sisters seemed to understand their memories are within themselves, not within their things. I think this book also has a much deeper message too: We are not our stuff.
They only thing they didn’t lose was each other. It’s a beautifully written story about two forgetful sisters from Uganda, Africa who always lose their physical belongings and then dream about them in their sleep. Since their company began in the UK in 2014, they have published a variety of different books including my personal favorite, Sleep Well Siba & Saba. Lantana’s mission is to select outstanding writing from around the world, working with prize-winning authors and illustrators from many countries, while at the same time nurturing new writing talent. I am so impressed with this new independent publishing company, Lantana Publishing! They publish award-winning diverse children’s books and wholeheartedly believe that ALL children deserve to see themselves in books. Until, one night, their dreams begin to reveal something entirely unexpected…With playful illustrations and a lullaby-like rhythm, this heart-warming story set in Uganda is truly one to be treasured.
When the two sisters fall asleep each night, they dream about the things they have lost that day. Sandals, slippers, sweaters – you name it, they lose it. Sleep Well Siba & Saba by Nansubuga Nagadya Isdahl, illustrated by Sandra Van Doornįorgetful sisters Siba and Saba are always losing something.
