The Poison Mushrooms

By Edwin Semzaba Roy

The village of Kiwanda is experiencing a famine. All villagers have to go to Kiometasaba to collect their rations. The journey to Kiometasaba using the long route is not normally dangerous, but in this time of famine the villagers encounter a lion attacking its prey. Tunda and Zamaradi, the children of Mziwanda and Makufini, are firsthand witnesses. As if that is not enough adventure, Tunda and Zamaradi must return to Kiwanda using the shorter route through the dense forest and wild animals. They have to hurry because they have learnt their parents may be in danger back at home. Will they reach Kiwanda on time to save their parents? How will they survive in a forest where villagers fear to tread?
