- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Lovely story about a young Maasai girl's imagination and determination.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The author's intent is to pass on stories just as the mama in the book passes on stories. Imani is a small child and often teased. She has the great dream of touching the moon, and her mother tells her: "A challenge is only impossible until someone accomplishes it....it is only you who must believe.' Despite many efforts, she fails, almost gives up, but somehow, in believing she achieves her dream. Beautiful illustrations, the spirited protagonist make this tale soar.
