Each child in Miss Ansie's class at Hoephoepieland has their own story that takes place in challenging circumstances within a multicultural South African context. The situations range from trauma (a taxi accident, xenophobia, a house burning down and domestic violence), medical conditions (congenital heart defect, infectious lung disease and cerebral palsy) to different family structures (adoption and an absent father).
The author tackles weighty issues with compassion, sensitivity and a fine sense of humor. The book makes children aware of others' worlds and helps them develop their capacity for empathy. There is also background information on each story’s specific theme as well as questions to discuss.
