TITLE: African Girl

AUTHOR: Rosemary Ndambuki

SYNOPSIS:

Due to lack of appropriate local solutions, the poor plight of the African girl child has been diagnosed using foreign tools for so long. Today, African scholars, educationists, counsellors and other caregivers are slowly realizing that the African child has unique challenges in growth and development that need to be handled with African sensitivity. In a gentle but exhaustive approach that endears the book to the girl-child, this book discusses the pertinent aspects of growth, grooming, esteem and purposeful living that concern the African girl. NOTE: ALL ILLUSTRATIONS ARE IN FULL COLOUR.
