"'[These books] are also wonderfully refreshing in their celebration of Africa - its people, culture and resources... Equally delightful is a capable, adventurous, identifiable and compelling female lead character. There is much to be celebrated here' (BOOKSELLER) 'St John brings Africa to vivid life in this tale of a young girl sent to a new life' (GUARDIAN)"
