In the Warm Heart of Africa, Malawi, a serendipitous encounter on Christmas Eve brought together two exceptional young individuals from vastly different backgrounds in 1999.

This story unfolds around Kondwani, a resilient 13-year-old who carries the burden of loss in a country grappling with the devastating effects of HIV and AIDS, and Sue, an inquisitive 11-year-old from New Zealand who delights in savouring juicy mangoes and observing playful monkeys.

Gone for a Walk promises to captivate readers with a compelling tale of empathy, resilience, and hope. While it is tailored for readers between the ages of eight and fourteen, its universal themes make it an enriching read for individuals of all ages.

At its core, the book delves into the pervasive impact of HIV and AIDS, shedding light on the profound societal effects and the remarkable resilience of those affected.

Beyond storytelling, "Gone for a Walk" incorporates educational activities designed to strengthen comprehension and language skills for both Western and African children.

Consequently, it is a valuable recommendation for parents and educators seeking to engage young readers.
