The journey of a girl from Africa whose near-death experience sparked a dream that changed the world.
What The Reviewers Say
Illuminating and uplifting, I Am a Girl from Africa is a must-read.
Nyamayaro tells the rich story of building a career in the dizzying world of international NGOs.
Nyamayaro deftly compares and contrasts her early upbringing in rural Zimbabwe with her struggles to gain a foothold in London and her eventual successes in her chosen field. She reveals to the reader the generally unexpressed joys and inner rewards of life in village Africa.
... readers will find that they are occupying the story of a truly exceptional human being.
