Jordi: The Girl Who Threw a Leaf At a Lion.

ByMinalsh Uggs

* Please note: Same story as 'Crying buffalo'. A story for adults who wish to experience this through an eleven-year-old girl’s point of view, and also suited to children (9-11). The reader is transported into another world -- a Zulu world, where it’s fiercest secret shows a girl how to cope with a traumatic family event. All the same, this story doesn't necessarily focus on suicide, merely sets aside for awareness, and at eleven-years-old, Jordi experiences such an awful change… Her carefree world comes crashing down, but she becomes aware of a new one; one occupied by a fearsome Zulu King, a regal Zulu Queen and her vulture, unusual Zulu gods, Zulu mythological characters, and the dreaded Tokoloshe. This tale covers the five documented stages of grief: Denial, anger, bargaining, depression and finally, acceptance. A young girl’s journey into Africa, where its fiercest secret shows her how to come to terms with her Father's suicide.
