Slum City Africa: “A Very Bad Place With Good Teachings” is based on the experiences of a family forced to abandon a pastoral life in Ethiopia and move to Kibera, Kenya, one of the world’s dirtiest, most dangerous, and most notorious, city slums. The central characters represent literally thousands of people who made this transition in the twenty-first century. The story is authentic. While the main characters are not true to life, every event described within these covers happened. The authors have confirmed them through extensive research and, most importantly, many emotion-filled hours interviewing a mother and son who experienced the journey themselves.
