This book is a powerful collection of three works by Melody Sibanda about fighting discrimination and finding strength.
PART 1: NOVEL - I HATE DISCRIMINATION
Based on a true story. A young Black girl moves to a new school full of dreams, but her teacher humiliates her, calls her garbage, and makes her sit at the back because of her color and size. Through faith and courage, she proves that small hope is greater than millions of hatred. A story every student who has felt left out will understand.
PART 2: DRAMA - THE PLOTTING SETTING (I Will Fight For Education No Matter What!)
Precious is a top student who loves school. Her uncle Isaac decides to sell her to Lucky, a rich gangster, for 8.5 million. Her mother Rumbie and her teacher Mr. Dlamini and Mrs. Johnson help her escape to the big city. She studies for 4 years with no contact, becomes a lawyer, and returns to put Isaac and Lucky behind bars for 7 years. She also saves her cousin Innocentia from a broken marriage. A story of courage, justice, and education.
PART 3: POEMS - Inspirational Poetry
Includes The Moon, I've Had Enough, and other poems about resilience, discrimination, peer pressure, and standing up for yourself.
Three stories, one message: When we are determined, we can touch the sky. You are courageous and worthy.
