Olu and Greta

English

By (author): Diana Ejaita

Illustrated by: Diana Ejaita

The geographical and cultural distance between two cousins is counteracted by the universalities of childhood and the dream of uniting.

Olu lives in Lagos, Nigeria; his cousin, Greta, lives in Milan, Italy. Though their lives may be different, their ways of living and playing are quite similar. They both roller skate; they both skip down the street; they both play with toy trains, trucks, and boats... and they both dream of meeting and being together. Debut author-illustrator Diana Ejaita references her own childhood and heritage to create a rich, poignant, and authentic portrayal of Nigeria, of Italy, and of the unity of childhood. See more

About Diana Ejaita

Diana Ejaita works as an illustrator and textile designer in Berlin. What sets her illustrations apart is a combination of dramatically contrasting areas of black and white with soft patterns and textures that create images that portray the strength of femininity. Born in Cremona Italy her aesthetic pays homage to her lineage. I am mostly into Central African culture; I love its literature arts and textile traditions. But as a child of migration and of interracial parents I am very driven by the issues of colonial/post-colonial effects racial and gender discrimination and identity research.
