Frightened that their baby sister Dineo will die, thirteen-year-old Naledi and her younger brother Tiro run away from their grandmother to Johannesburg to find their mother, who works there as a maid. Their journey illustrates at every turn the grim realities of apartheid - the pass laws, bantustans, racism, the breakdown of family life.             The opulence of the white \"Madam's\" house contrasts starkly with the reality that Naledi and Tiro face - that their baby sister is suffering from starvation, not an incurable disease.             This edition of Beverley Naidoo's classic story includes a special \"Why You'll Love This Book\" introduction by Michael Rosen, former Children's Laureate.","brand":"Scotia Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42938247217335,"sku":"9780007263509","price":7.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0570\/5629\/7143\/files\/9780007263509.jpg?v=1717412160","url":"https:\/\/www.scotiabooksonline.co.uk\/products\/9780007263509","provider":"scotia-books-online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
