Bembe's Heart
by Marin Darmonkow
Illustrated by Marin Darmonkow
The story is a celebration of survival, love,
and motherhood.
Bembe was the only child on both sides of
Corazon Mountain born without a heart.
Miraculously, he not only lived, but despite
his young age, he worked as hard as two grown men.
The village shaman proclaimed that Bembe
will live only until the night he becomes a man.
Unless a miracle happens...
What kind of miracle you may ask.
Only mothers know the answer...
and motherhood.
