This is a story of growing up in Sudan as told from the perspective of an observant young girl. Through the eyes of Farida, as well as her inquisitive sister and brothers, the reader learns about life in the capital as well as the rural villages of Sudan in the 1960s. Sudanese culture and customs are brought to life, from the ubiquitous tea service and hearty breakfasts to the commemoration of Muslim holidays and the rites of birth and death.
