" The Adventure of Moïse and the Animals’ has been a beautiful and amazing life experience for me. It helped me step out of this cloistered world, cross all barriers and return to my childhood and re-live the happiest and the most memorable time of my life. It took me to place of innocent giggles, playful pranks, funny adventures, and much more that shaped me and my family into the survivors that we are.
I believe every child is special and is a unique blessing, as is my lovely young brother Moise Juma, upon whom the main character of the story is based on.
My brother Moise is an adorable, loving, kind and talented child. He is a ray of hope; He symbolises our aspirations and makes our family shine brighter.
I wrote The Adventure of Moïse and the Animals story to celebrate life of every child, every family and every animal in our world, including the life of my lovely brother Moise Juma, my beautiful family, our friends and Moise’s human and animal friends.
This story is a unique and special gift from my family to yours: to be shared and enjoyed together. This is a special gift to offer to a brother and sister for a birthday, or for a unique festival and celebration, or to read to a child to keep them happy at night.
This book is for all the children around the world. You embody all of our aspirations and celebrations. Cliché though, but memories last forever. So go forth and make wonderful memories!”
SYNOPSIS:
Based on a true story, this is a tale of a boy whose passion and love for animals makes him treat them as his friends. Little Moïse was going to celebrate his fifth birthday and, just like his birthday every year before, his entire family was involved in preparing big elaborate gifts to surprise him. This year, his birthday was very unique and unusual because on his celebration night, Moïse’s elder sister gave him a wonderful birthday gift: She offered him an extraordinarily funny account of “the Jungleman and his encounter with the green Snake, the lucky Frog, the lost Lion and the frightened Zebra.”
This tale inspired Moïse to dream of his upcoming summer holiday trip to Africa. Little Moïse and his siblings decided to travel to Africa to visit their father. There, they had an adventure and experienced life differently than the usual Canadian culture, environment, people, animal and nature. They saw animals in a zoo and Moïse’s extreme love for animals grew. He also became attached to the wild animals that he encountered and experienced with his family on their adventure in Africa. Moïse and his family had a good visit until one evening, close to the end of their trip, when Moïse befriended an animal that may not want to be his friend.
