“Thank you CSF ! This mention is, In my opinion, a great encouragement to continue writing”.

Where does this passion come from? ?

“The passion for reading and writing came to me quite early, writing for my classmates. I then told, in a secret notebook, my life and my view of the world.” says Irma in CSF#15.

“En 2019, I had the chance to share this passion through a short story for children which is now part of the book “ Dream Diary » (A Journal of Dreams, book intended for children in rural Malagasy schools).

And then, there is music…I listen, I sing, I play…because a very beautiful Malagasy proverb says : “work done while singing will be completed without even realizing the heaviness of the task.””

Dream Diary

Madagascar, access to books can be difficult, particularly for children from rural and/or remote areas. Books, locally or foreign manufactured, are sold at prices inaccessible to the popular masses.

It is difficult to find books in Malagasy language, yet supposed to be a vector of national culture. The main objective of this initiative is to contribute to improving the quality of education by allowing better access to books in rural areas.
