  • Description
  • Unravel the beauty of choices with “The Red String”, a captivating picture book presented by The National Kidney Foundation, featuring the inimitable illustrations of Ah Guo 阿果, along with writer Perry Ho. The story narrates the delightful adventure of a boy as he navigates life’s choices, symbolised by the red string that represents our interconnected existence.

    Through this heartwarming tale of love, hope and self-discovery, young readers are encouraged to recognise the impact of the choices today that may shape their tomorrows. This initiative subtly aims to heighten awareness of kidney health, weaving a tale that explores diverse perspectives and fosters new connections.

    “Planting the seeds of kidney disease prevention in the minds of the young is the key to cultivating a healthier future. By instilling awareness and healthy habits early on, we empower the next generation to make informed choices, fostering a foundation of well-being that reaches far beyond themselves. Investing in the health education of our youth is an investment in a future where kidney disease is not just treated but prevented, paving the way for a generation that values and prioritizes lifelong well-being.” Said Tim Oei, Chief Executive Officer, NKF.

    There is a pressing need for our next generations to be aware of the choices they make. With its simple yet profound messaging, "The Red String" hopes to captivate and capture the imagination of young readers, and spur them on their own journeys of well-being and discovery.

    《红线之缘》是一本讲述人生选择的书,由本地知名插画家阿果和作者何毅雄共同创作,全国肾脏基金会出版。书中通过小男孩的探索之旅,带出人生充满选择,并以一条红线寓意活中离不开互相扶持。

    这本书让人看到爱、希望和反思的温馨故事,引导少儿认识到今天的选择,攸关他们的未来。本书的初衷是提醒人们关注肾脏保健,故事除了通过多方视角探索问题,也探索建立新的联系。

    全国肾脏基金会执行理事长黄振令说:“教育孩童预防肾脏疾病,是维护未来健康的关键。通过尽早灌输防范于未然的意识和健康的生活习惯,能鼓励下一代有足够的认识做出明智的选择,为他们的健康打下基础。投资少儿的健康教育,就是投资未来。”

    让我们的下一代了解自己的选择,刻不容缓。《红线之缘》以简单而深刻的寓意,吸引少儿发挥想象力,并激励他们继续前进,踏上自己的幸福和探索之旅。
