Bøger af Marc Majewski

Broer kan være høje eller lave, lige eller buede, nye eller gamle.De har dog alle sammen én ting til fælles: Broer forbinder.Både mennesker og verdener.Tag med forfatter og illustrator Marc Majewski på en fortryllende rejse til nogle af de mest fantastiske broer i hele verden.Lige fra den tårnhøje Millau-viadukt i Frankrig, som er højere end selve Eiffeltårnet, til den iøjnefaldende Golden Gate Bridge i USA, som er malet i en stærk orange farve, så alle skibe nemt kan se den. Nogle broer skjuler sig mere, som Umshiang Double-Decker Root Bridge i Indien, som er en levende bro af rødder, der gror sig stærkere år efter år, eller Moses-broen i Holland, som næsten er helt usynlig, hvis man ikke kigger rigtig godt efter.

With very text, this picture book contains the important message to be true to yourself. The protagonist is a young boy who likens himself to a butterfly. Even though he is bullied, he finds the support he needs to open his wings and fly.

"Bridges can be high or low, long or short, straight or curvy. Some are designed to blend in, while others stand out. But each one tells a story: a reminder of our history, a testament to ingenuity and engineering, an invitation to imagine the possibilities of the future. Literally and symbolically, bridges connect us-to new places, new cultures, and new people. With poetic text and sweeping illustrations, Marc Majewski delivers a unique, accessible look at bridges from all around the world: from the incredible structures that connect San Francisco's Golden Gate and Zambia's Victoria Falls, to England's Tower Bridge and Japan's Akashi-Kaikyo Bridge, and many in between. Both informational and thought-provoking, Bridges shows how these awe-inspiring structures unite the manmade and natural worlds, and how they bring humanity together"--
