"Not so fast, Songololo: Malusi, affectionately nicknamed Songololo by his grandmother Gogo, goes to the city to go shopping with her. Set in South Africa, Daly’s warm text is enhanced by expressive illustrations that capture the warmth and tenderness shared by grandmother and child. Elizabeti's doll: When her new baby brother arrives, Elizabeti, a young Tanzanian girl, longs for a baby of her own to hold and bathe and kiss and burp. One day she finds the perfect baby - a rock she names Eva - just the right size for holding and bathing and kissing and burping. Narrated by Lynn Whitfield, with music by Crystal Taliefero."--Container.
