I found this book so interesting because not only does it tell us of the journey that these two children went on, it also taught me so much about the apartheid law in South Africa.
Apartheid was a set of laws that mean black and white people had to be segregated (separated) in many areas of their day to day life. In the book, we also meet characters who were determined to fight for their freedom. I found this very inspirational!
Can you think of any other stories where children have to go on an adventure or journey in order to save someone or something?
I've heard of a book called the lion who stole my arm and it's about a lion that takes his arm away and he goes on an adventure to kill the lion
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of the firework makers daughter because she goes on an journey to be the Best fire work maker EVER! But then she realises it was all in her imagination the person that gives her the things can't do it he want 3 things to do it and if you don't have them you'll perish in fire but then people come to save her by giving her the 3 things
ReplyDeleteI think journey to Johannesburg is related to the movie we saw because Naledi and tiro went on a journey to Johannesburg to find Mma and in the movie at the trip the boy went looking for his brother and they both have a intresting journeys
ReplyDeleteI I think journey to joburg is similar to the movie we watched as a class because the boy did not listen to everyone in the village. and tiro and Naledi knew that Nono would not let them go so far from home more 300kl. And the boy meats people just like Naledi and tiro. But the only thing they don't have in coman is that in journey to joburg someone is sick and Naledi diner and mama go to the hospital.
