The Hope Raisers: How a Group of Young Kenyans Fought to Transform Their Slum and Inspire a Community by Nihar Suthar (Book Review #1511)

‘The Hope Raisers’ is a young adult non-fiction book about how Daniel and Mutura change the lives of the children living in Korohocho who are plagued by violence and many basic human needs shortages.

Beginning with small things, such as teaching children how to express their feelings, you understand the severity of things. Lucy Achieng, who was forced to marry at a young age, was an interesting read. While emotionally, I was engaged with the writing, I was also thinking about all that was going on and how I would have handled or helped the situation.

The book is written with determination and is dedicated. This made it all the more enjoyable to read.

This is a very inspiring read, and I recommend it to those who like to read deeply moving stories. It is powerful and well put together. The writing is perfect for the young reader and mind.
