Will Kaahina find the confidence that she needs to perform at the Dance Festival tomorrow?"Its very important for children to trust and believe in themselves, to foster a sense of perseverance that will allow them to triumph in all areas of life. My writing encourages this whilst also exposing children to a culture they likely dont know much about. The development of cultural and tradition awareness is more important now than ever before. One school classroom can potentially contain kids from half a dozen different cultures and literature is a great vehicle for helping them broaden their horizons." Author Biography This is my first childrens novel. Having East African heritage,has heavily inspired my writing career.
