Mondi The Music Maker

A picture-book story that is worth searching for. Mondi is a crippled boy who lives in Durban and earns money by paying on his recorder. But the day comes when the recorder is lost and Mondi has to make a terrible decision whether to buy a new one or give the money he has earned to his sister for her college fees. But all ends well – and Ian Lusted’s bright, bouncy artwork is some of his best.
