Inhaltsangabe

This powerful, joyous book moved me to tears. For all who remember the story of little Alana Dung and her battle with leukemia, this parallel tale of her life will steal your heart. Written in playful rhyme, exuberant Wailana the Waterbug spends her days frolicking through reeds and rocks, leading parades of tadpoles and frogs. “Along with her friends she would practice each day/ Perfecting her dance for the water ballet. With a leap and a spin, she heard cheers from the crowd/Her parents just gleamed and they felt very proud.” After the little bug falls ill, she grows a pair of wings and takes to the sky, transformed into a dragonfly. Furuya’s warm, effervescent paintings are exceptional. Wailana the Waterbug woke up each day, to be with her friends, to go out and play. What a joy to be seen all the cheers and the smiles, Waterbugs followed the parade on for miles. All through the Winter Spring, Summer and Fall Wailana’s parades would bring laughter to all.
