Journey to Jo’Burg (HarperCollins Children’s Modern Classics)

It's very nice there's a little baby sis who's still ck and Naledi and her bro Tiro go to Johannesburg which is 250 kilometers away which is quite a long walk in South Africa

Very interesting book and my favourite character was Naledi. I learned more about Africa from the story. Good book for everyone.

I thought in the middle nere the end it was a bit violent because when the police came everyone ran in different directions and it was overwhelming.

I love the way that every time the story seems to be solving the problem, another problem comes along for the children. It keeps you in suspense.

A simple introduction to Apartheid. Naledi lives in a village with her grandparents while her mother lives and works for a white lady in Johannesburg. Naledi has been slightly sheltered from Apartheid but when her baby sister gets sick, she and her brother make a risky journey to the city to get their mother to come home. While there, they start noticing the segregation and this makes them start to question things. Aimed at 9+

It’s very good book about two children to save their baby sister who is sick. I really enjoyed reading it.

an interesting touching book....sometimes hard to understand though...

this book was very intresting and emotional and heart touuching .

good

I would recommed it to someone who likes sad stories. It is is fiction . My favouite part is when Mma took Dineo to the hospital to get medicine. My favourite person is Grace because she helped Naledi and Tiro.

An interesting look into that time period. It was a lot shorter than I expected

I loved the direct voice, asking questions if the reader, the beautiful telling of a sad story.

This book was about refugees on a journey to Jo’burg. It has old language but tells you what it means. Really great book! Would recommend it to people who like old and adventurous stories.

I adored this book it was filled of emotion even if some of them were not happy ones. I grew to love the characters and everything about them. The actual journey was brilliant and thoughtful. I would definitely recommend this to any mature thoughtful and friendly people who want to help others.

My favourite was Naledi because she had the determination to travel 300km to Johannesburg to get mma so she could help Dineo survive. I like the book although i am sad back then they had discrimination but Naledi still was able to get mma by the help of Grace. I would recommend it to other people so they can be inspired like me never give up if you are struggling.

I enjoyed it!

this really interested me because it actually tells a real story that tells me a lot about the behaviour of white people to black people before.

I wanted to learn more about the apartheid in South Africa and this story was great. I think Naledi and Tiro were so brave and it was terrible how black people were treated. The book was banned in South Africa for many years.

It was very good, although a little short. My favourite character was Grace. She was very kind. I liked how Naledi will do anything to save her baby sister.

A real glimpse into a very different life.

Recommended Highly. Excelent book

I found it really good to read but, it was quite sad.
It was also a shortish story for people over ten.
