Summary

The writer embraces the name "Terre" affectionately given to him by his grandmother while paying homage to his roots, identity and culture. He celebrates iconic community individuals whom he interacted with as a child, remembering their frequently used adages and the wisdom they often dispensed to the community. The book is an opportunity to plan community excursions around the themes of conservation and culture in a breathtaking scenic environment. It is an excellent resource for both local and international educators who celebrate Creole Heritage Day, Jounen Kweyol and Mother Tongue Day, as it introduces the reader to native words with a complete glossary and translation. Most of all, the book is a fun way for kids to learn native creole words and about the rich culture of the vibrant fishing village of Laborie, St. Lucia.
