Maisie's Scrapbook Maria Jastrzebska In language that is bothAs the seasons turn, Maisie rides her bull in and out of Dadas tall tales. Her Mama wears linen and plays the viola. Her Dada wears kente cloth and plays the marimba. They come from different places, but they hug her in the same way. And most of all, they love her just the same. A joyful celebration of a mixed race family and the love that binds us all together.
