THE STORY

Thapelo and his new(ish) mother and sister, Tina and Nadia, move to a NEW COUNTRY. The big city he now calls home is not at all like the South African safari lodge, where he used to live – until everything changed on that baffling day. THE DREADFUL DAY his mama died. 

Luckily, life in Berlin is EXCITING, with a gazillion things to discover. And Thapelo shares it all with his cousin and grandmother back in Malawi. He loves the city buzz, but the CROWDS MAKE HIM ANXIOUS, until he recognizes familiar African birds and animals in the people around him.

He barely starts finding his feet, when his OLD NIGHTMARES RETURN and become even scarier. If he shrinks back, the dreams might never stop, but if he wrestles through them, he could face WHAT REALLY HAPPENED on The Dreadful Day.
