Tjek vores konkurrenters priser

With gentle humour and a gift for detail, [Gaile Parkin] brings Rwanda to life, with its physical beauty, food and customs... [Baking Cakes in Kigali] is fluent and deeply moving - Independent

From the author of Baking Cakes in Kigali comes the irresistible story of Benedict Tungazara, a ten-year-old boy in Swaziland who loves beautiful birds, his mother''s cakes, and making people happy...

Ten-year-old Benedict is feeling happy. His family''s new home in Swaziland has the most beautiful garden in the whole entire world, teeming with insects, frogs and his favourite cinnamon-coloured birds. Here, crouched in the cool shade of the lucky-bean tree, it''s easy to forget the loneliness that comes from his siblings playing without him, easy to stop himself fretting about how to fix his Mama''s failing cake-baking business.

Of course, there are many things in Africa that cannot be put right by a boy who isn''t yet big. But in Benedict''s wonder-filled world, even the ugliest situation has a certain magic. Warm, funny and brimming with life, Where Hoopoes Go to Heaven paints a fresh and compelling picture of life in Swaziland that will capture your imagination and restore your faith in humanity.
