Reseña del libro "Adi of Boutanga: A Story From Cameroon (en Inglés)"
A coming-of-age story for middle grade readers, set among the Mbororo people of central and western Africa. Thirteen-year-old Adi lives in west Cameroon, where she loves swimming in the river, making dolls for her little sisters, and writing new words in her notebook at school. But one day Adi's hands start to shake with terror. Uncle Amadou--the most powerful member of her family--has declared that Adi is old enough to get married. Mom cries softly under her hijab, but Dad whispers: "Don't worry." He knows a place where Adi can live and learn without fear... Translated from the original French by the author, Adi of Boutanga is a memorable portrait of a girl and her family forging a path toward a brighter future. This richly illustrated book will open lasting conversations about gender equality, family relationships, and the liberating power of education. In the back matter, readers can explore an author's note, a glossary of cultural terms, and other resources about the real Adi and her experiences.
