Customer Reviews

Tanzanian children's book--"Rehema's Journey"

This is a really accurate picture of Tanzanian places, and is beautifully written from the viewpoint of a little Tanzanian girl whose father is a safari guide. I'll be reading it to my grandchildren, have recommended it to others who also love Tanzania, and may send it to a little Tanzanian girl whose father is a safari guide.

A great introduction to diverse cultures for children

I bought this book for our young children to prepare them before traveling to Tanzania. This book, with its photographs depicting a nine-year-old girl, her home and family, and her experiences on a journey to the Ngorongoro crater, provided a concise, but accurate view of rural, city, and tribal life in Tanzania, as well as some of the animals that are native to the country's wildlife reserves. This book is a wonderful introduction to the similarities and differences of African life for children of many cultures.
