Synopsis
Up the downy dunes, across the dark, wide river and up and down the steep, steep mountain, Penda lovingly carries a bowl of milk to her father in the grasslands.
But will she manage to get it there without spilling a single drop?
Authentic setting drawn from the author's own experience, this is a wonderfully fun introduction for small children to a completely different culture.
