Wonderful!

My bi-racial baby is half Kenyan and I'm sure she'll love this book for years to come. A bit stereotypical but not too bad. Wonderful artwork.

This book is fabulous! Having worked in East Africa for several years, I thoroughly enjoyed this magnificently illustrated and cleverly told story of a typical Kenyan boy. A must buy.

A wonderful book

I recently checked this book out from the library not knowing much about it except what the title had to offer. I wanted my daughter to grow up with the awareness that other cultures and countries exist. The book went beyond our expectation with its unique style of putting the reader as the main character in role playing. The author was able to really take us into a village and introduce us to people we might meet, different activites, and responsiblities that we as a child in Kenya might partake in or have. Not to mention introducing us to some language, all in a simplicity that a child, such as my 3 year old would comprehend! My daughter wants me to read this book to her again and again! After we return the book to the library, this is a book I will have be sure to look for to purchase. AND how can I not mention the beautfiul illustrations as well, they are what appealed to me along with the title when I first pulled the book off the shelf!
