Omg

My best friend gave me this book as a Christmas gift and I absolutely loved this book. Trevor noah is so funny

A special kids' version of Trevor Noah's memoir

This is a special edited version of "Born A Crime", and if you have kids in your life, you should get it for them. Then get the original for yourself. In this version, bad language is taken out, and a few other small adjustments. Either version will make you actually laugh out loud, and probably cry real tears. An amazing series of true stories from Trevor Noah's childhood in apartheid South Africa. The humor makes it easier to learn this important, not-that-long-ago history.
