Worth Reading: Chike and the River By Chinua Achebe!!!

CHIKE AND THE RIVER

By Chinua Achebe

Perhaps the most assigned African novel at American universities is Chinua Achebe’s absolutely brilliant Things Fall Apart. But it’s not just for students. Neither is his latest book, a short piece of fiction that follows and 11-year-old who has never left his Nigerian village and desperately wants to cross a big, nearby river. But will he get the help he needs? This is a fantastic read for middle graders. But buy two copies: one for the kids and one for yourself. – RAKIA CLARK
