Wanjik?, child of mine

"In the lush Kenyan countryside, a young Gik?y? girl helps her grandmother with daily tasks. Here, as she tends to the cows, carries water, and plays in the fruit trees and sugarcane, she is called Wanjik?. On the busy city streets of Nairobi, where she goes to school, she is called by her English name, Catherine. But at home with Wangar?, the maid who cooks and cares for her, she is again Wanjik?. All grown up in boarding school, Catherine is the leader of her class, surrounded by friends from different cultural backgrounds. But at night, when she gathers with her fellow Gik?y? sisters to speak her mother tongue, she is Wanjik? once more"--Provided by publisher.
