Do You Know Me

This story is about the visit of Uncle Zeka, who normally lives deep in the Zimbabwean bush, to his straight-laced relatives in town, including his niece Tapiwa. He causes chaos-as a result of doing things like constructing a trap for wild pigs in the garden and driving a car when he doesn't know how--but his warmth and spontaneity enchant Tapiwa, who quickly becomes embroiled in his adventures . The story is very funny and sparkles with inventive touches. Never a dull moment!

Brilliant, hilarious, quick and easy to read, but full of delightful depths. I chuckle just to think of it.

The story, Do You Know Me?, takes place in Africa where one brother living in a more modern community tries to help his older brother who has had to survive in the bush with only his wits to help him. Their ways of doing things clash and that's when the fun begins. Uncle Zeka and his antics had me laughing out loud! The characters in this story are ones you'll never forget. My favorite, Tapiwa, is a shy, intelligent girl who learns that the most valuable lessons are not always learned at school. This is an excellent book to read with your class, teachers!
