It is 1899. Ten year old Samkad thinks he knows everything about the world. He knows that home is in the mountains. He knows who his friends and his enemies are. And he knows that he will grow up to become a warrior like his dad, with his own shield, spear and axe.

His best friend is Little Luki and she too wants to become a warrior - though there's little chance of that because she is just a girl.

Then strangers arrive: a boy with many languages in his throat ... and weird-looking men called Americans who bring war and death.

Set during the U.S. invasion of the Philippines.

Endorsed by Amnesty International: "Amnesty International endorses Bone Talk because it upholds many human rights, including our rights to life, to equality, to have a religion, to enjoy our own culture. It also shows us what can happen when these are taken away from us."

Описание: When Louise s breast cancer returned, six years after her first diagnosis as stage IV incurable cancer, she soon realised that rather than being a death sentence, it was the final opportunity to put her life in order. That meant learning to take care of her mental and emotional wellbeing, not just her physical health as she had previously done. There is so much that can support us to get well, but ultimately the journey is ours alone. This short, powerful book will help you find the courage and determination to navigate that path, whilst not forgetting to live fully during the process. It is the advice she would have liked to have received when things were tough. A reminder to slow down, keep calm and see the bigger picture - that illness facilitates healing on a deeper level, bringing more meaning and fullness into our lives. As Louise herself discovered through her own experience, cancer can mark a beginning not an end.
