Sala has a real mountain to climb in this authentic story set among the Samburu people of Kenya

There’s a school trip to climb the mountain near Sala’s home and she’s excited – but nervous too, because she’s the only girl to take the challenge….

But Grandmother shows the way, inspiring Sala with her mountain lore, her special beads and her storytelling.

Can Sala climb to the top of the mountain and be the first warrior girl of her clan?

Set in the Samburu region of northern Kenya, this is an exciting, inspirational story about courage and empowerment.

Recenzijas

"Sala, Mountain Warrior is a lovely picture book which tells a great story of girl power it captures a culture and landscape so warm and inviting that children will be instantly drawn in. The text is clear and the language accessible for children to read independently. Highly recommended for any classroom bookshelf." -- Reading Zone "Digital art in bright desert colors portrays the Kenyan countryside and the people with warmth and affection. Its interesting to see the native beads and attire of Grandmother and the guide Laibon, and how they are respected by the children. I think kids will love the drama of whether Sala will make it up the mountain, especially as she is representing her gender! A note at the end explains that the story is inspired by the lives of girls in the Northern Kenyan Samburu community. The text is a bit longer than many picture books, and Sala is in elementary school, so I think this would be great to read aloud to grades K-3." -- Youth Services Book Review (USA) "This lovely story about female empowerment and determination is also about the wisdom the old have to offer the young... A clear text with equally bold, colourful illustrations which convey character and mood so clearly, this would be verysuitable for 5-7 year olds." * English Association *
