A book from Africa:
The kaya girl.
By Mamle Wolo.
Little, Brown and Company, 2022.
If you want to travel to another culture - to experience division and the effects of colonialism - then this middle grade book is what you're looking for.
I live in a colonised land. I am the descendants of colonisers. I am working on seeing the impacts on Māori - the indigenous peoples of Aotearoa.
I appreciate how 'different' this world is, to my Anglicised world view.
