I Want to be an Airline Pilot

Description

Shema, an eight-year-old Rwandan goatherd from a child-led family, has many adventures, including a goat eating his only T-shirt, a frightening visit to a medicine man and a dangerously close brush with a spitting black cobra! Through them all, little by little, Shema learns about “Mister God” and discovers that although he is an orphan, he has a father in heaven who cares for him.

“I think this book is very good, it makes me feel happy, sad and really excited: I think the most interesting part is when Shema faced the black cobra. It was very moving when in the book Ishimwe starts to cry because her parents died. I really enjoyed this book, it is one of my favorites.” – Kemi
