The Dry River <ui>
The rains have not come for months, and Njoki must find water each morning for her sick mother and hungry brothers. Then she digs up a strange gourd in the dry riverbed, warm in her hands, with water that never seems to run out. But what happens when a greedy neighbor learns its secret? Can Njoki mend what has been broken? This Bookbot book practices the ‘ui’ sound in words like ‘fluid’, ‘fruit’, ’nuisance’, ‘pursuit’, and ‘suits’.
