Produktbeschreibung
Kwezi is a curious young boy from Uganda, who wants nothing more in the world than a bicycle. He dreams of using his new yellow bicycle to take his mother to the market and finish his chores faster. When no one will help him achieve his goal, he must take matters into his own hands. With the companionship of his friend Salema, the two attempt to build a bicycle from bamboo and reeds. Inspired by the author's own childhood in Uganda, this thoughtful story offers a new narrative about children growing up in rural Uganda. The book highlights a unique upbringing, loving community, and the pure joy embodied within a young Ugandan boy who does whatever it takes to reach his goal. No matter the obstacles a child may be facing, this uplifting story aims to inspire its young readers to look for creative solutions and never doubt the power and magic within themselves. This book serves as a reminder that children do not think of themselves as inferior, powerless, uncreative, or poor until the world starts to tell them so. It also provides a unique opportunity to shed light on the purpose and mission of Cycle Connect, formerly Bicycles Against Poverty, which the author founded in 2008 at university along with a small group of students thirsty for global change.
