King of all Fish

Kamau is set to run the race of his life. Will his Baba show up to see him win? Will uganga rays help him? Is his main competitor more determined to win than him? How far is his competitor prepared to go to win? Based on a real-life experience, The Amazing Race explores the sort of challenges faced by children that can build or break their character. As highlighted in the appendix of the story, there are no right or wrong answers when it comes to emotions. Exploring our feelings increases our emotional intelligence. The Points to ponder, in the appendix, promote independent thought by encouraging the reader to relate the learning in the story to their own life. Answering the questions will also sharpen the reader’s critical thinking skills. The story and the discussion points allow for enjoyable and stimulating reading and conversation. The Amazing Race is a must-read and must-shared story. – Juliet Maruru, writer, teacher
