The book aims to inform children and adults alike on the situation for many children in rural Uganda who desperately need the opportunity for an education to free them from a life of poverty. The story follows a young girl called Patience who learns about Uphill Junior School and, with the financial support of a donor in the UK, enrols in school and starts her journey towards a better life.

Please add £2 P&P for 1 copy or £3.50 for 2 or more copies to be sent to a UK address. For overseas P&P please contact the trustees.
