Alexandria of Africa

Eric Walters

     This book is about a snobby girl who gets whatever she wants. Alexandria's life is easy until she gets arrested for shoplifting. This time, she can't weasel herself out it. She is packed on a plane heading for Kenya, Africa, where she is forced to work for a charity helping African children. Alexandria is trapped without cell phone use, hot water, her wallet, and air conditioning. She eventually copes with the locals to find a facinating culture.

     I enjoyed how this book gave you true facts about African children and how it gives the reader a clear message of how lucky we all are compared to these poor children. After reading this novel, I thought about all my friends who demand their own cell phone or laptop. They don't realise that some children in the world don't have water. 

This is an amazing read I rate 9/10.
