Once upon a time, a long time ago, far into the future, lived a girl named Wandala. She lived in the town of Centrailia, which was appropriate because it was smack dab in the center of the world. But it hadn’t always been. Long before Wandala was born, there were five continents made up of five very different people. They quarreled over everything, especially who was the best. There were terrible fights with ugly words between the groups. One day a massive earthquake shook the ground so violently that most of the planet broke apart and fell into the sea – leaving only one island: Centrailia. Those who survived rushed to the island, each quickly staking a place, far from each of the other groups. There was North, South, East, West, and Centrailia in the middle. They created five separate countries, keeping it the same as it was before the big Boom-Boom. But instead of quarreling with the other peoples as before, they pretended they were the only people of this new world, ignoring the others as if they did not exist. There was no communication between the groups and none dared to venture across the borders.

Zazu Dreams, Between the Scarab and the Dung Beetle. A Cautionary Tale for the Anthropocene Era

eifrigpublishing — Wed, 18 Jan 2017 22:57:45 +0000

Not your ordinary kids' book: Accolades for Alhadeff and Zazu Dreams:“Impressive.” DR. NOAM CHOMSKY, author of Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media / “Astonishing." PAUL HAWKEN, author of The Ecology of Commerce Zazu Dreams is a tale about the adventures of a Sephardic boy and his imaginary friend, a malamute husky, as they traverse the globe on a humpback whale across time and space, experiencing the marvels and mayhem of the relationship between humans and their environments (human ecologies). Crossing temporal dimensions and international borders, past, present, and future overlap through phantasmagorical encounters with historical figures like Jacques Cousteau, Spinoza, Rachel Carson, and ibn Sina.For cross-generational audiences, Zazu Dreams includes lush illustrations and detailed endnotes (“The 21st Century Arcades Project”). Together, the narrative, images, and Arcades unravel the intersections between the sciences and humanities—global ecological extinction and cultural extinction of ethnic minorities. Zazu Dreams explores migration and transformation from waste to useful by-product—including toxic sludge to critical compost, desertification to oasis, cusp of extinction to restoration, body-phobia to biophilia. Symbiotic relationships from the natural world coincide with the histories of diasporic peoples from Iberia, North Africa, and the Middle East. The authors integrate two seemingly unrelated topics: Jewish and Arabic philosophies with consumer-convenience petro-culture. This cautionary fable incites transgenerational audiences to question the vast implications of the vital yet precarious concept of “sustainability.”
