For a fresh and positive perspective on death and dying follow Ikenna, our young narrator, as he describes the funeral celebration of his great-grandmother, Mama Nkwelle. Far from a sad, somber occasion, a traditional Nigerian funeral lasts more than two weeks and includes dancing, drumming, and gift-giving along with quiet reflection and prayer. Vibrant photographs portray a typical Nigerian extended family and its community so matter-of-factly that the reader feels part of it, too. A fascinating look at an African community.
