by Mary Weeks Millard (Author)

Inspiring Christian children's book, set in Africa after the Rwandan genocide. Ideal for family reading, or for young readers to read alone.


Shema, an eight-year-old 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 black spitting cobra! Though them all, little by little Shema learns about "Mister God" and discovers that although he is in an orphan, he has a Father in heaven who cares for him.


A victorious, heart-warming story for 8-11s, with lovely background to life in rural Rwanda.


"This book is very good, it made me feel happy, sad and really excited; I think the most interesting part is when Shema faced the black cobra. It was also very moving when in the book Ishimwe starts to cry because her parents died. I really enjoyed this book. It is one of my favourites." - Kemi

"A thrilling adventure story about three orphans' dreams coming true when their prayers were answered." - Jonathan

"I give this book 10/10." - Ellie


"I want to be an Airplane Pilot was an amazing book. It reminds me of how God is awesome." - Simeon


"One of my boys was very impressed with the part where the kids killed the snake. He also learned from the book that all children around the world have dreams about the future and he was touched by the hardships and challenges they face." - Michelle


"This was an intriguing and delightful tale of an orphaned family which was written with great compassion. The hero, Shema, and the lady that rescued him, Mama Grace, and their fears and emotions were very well portrayed. The story was fast-moving and full of local interest." - Edwin
