50 Illustrated Haitian Proverbs — Volume I

The first volume in the MoKreyol series. These 50 proverbs were spoken long before they were written — passed from grandparents to grandchildren, from markets to mountains, across generations of Haitian life. Each one is illustrated in MoKreyol's signature dark-and-gold style.
