Emily Kwamboka Mogeni is a 33 year old Kenyan American who lives in Eagan Minnesota with her husband Erick and their two young sons Damien and Dylan. She developed her writing interest as early as 5 years old. She went to Kenya’s top girls’ school, The Kenya High School where she excelled in English and Literature. She later moved to the United States to study Computer Science at the State University of New York. She is currently a student at the Minnesota School of Business. Her father, who was her great inspiration died in March 2003 due to throat cancer. Three months later her mother died. This is what gave her the inspiration to write this book and share the story of what many young orphans in Kenya are undergoing. Her book is an insight to the rest of the world about what is happening deep down in the roots of an African village. There are millions of children who will never live to enjoy what the world has to offer due to their HIV status. These children most of whom are very bright and smart suffer quietly while living with their aging grandparents in the poverty stricken villages. Most of them lost their parents soon after birth or before their fifth birthday. This book is a great inspiration to many of these children. All they need is a roof on top of their heads, a warm meal and proper medical care.
