A magical Masai mask takes an African American boy on a series of adventures, and he discovers the joy of being himself.
Joshua loves playing his kalimba, a traditional African musical instrument. But when his family suggests he join the school talent show, he thinks it’s a terrible idea – all his classmates like rap. Wishing to be popular, Joshua turns to his Uncle Zambezi, who gives him a magical Masai mask. Little does he know, the mask will grant Joshua his wish, and more..
Anna Rich’s illustrations give the humorous characters spunk and charm, while Dakari Hru creates a fun, positive tale in which a young boy learns what it’s like to be in someone else’s shoes.
