Silk
Umbrellas
by
Carolyn Marsden
Noi
lives a happy, simple life in a farming village in Thailand. She is
learning from her aging grandmother to paint on silk umbrellas. Her
life changes suddenly when their farmland is sold to developers, and
her father loses his job. When her sister begins to work in the radio
factory, Noi fears that she, too, will have to leave the beauty of the
jungle to work in the painfully repetitive assembly line. Will the silk
umbrellas be part of a plan to bring back brighter days?
As
you follow Noi through her story, you will become familiar with her
Buddhist religious traditions and Thai celebrations.
