The Joining

Set in the Cederberg mountains where, in a time-jump, a group of modern children find themselves alongside a clan of /Xam people (part of those often called Bushmen or San). They experience the simplicity of living in harmony with the natural world, as well as learning much about the significance of rock art. The reader is joined to the past by storytelling. It is excellently written, profound, exciting. More intelligent readers will also understand how differing peoples can be peacefully joined. We – all of us here in South Africa – need to make a Joining.
