Jahenda the Teenager Mother
Jahenda, the Teenage Mother is a coming-of-age story about Jahenda, the protagonist and a Form-two student at Chavavo Secondary school, who believes education is her key to success. Like most teenage girls, she vows not to be distracted by teenage love, but when Alan, a handsome and charming young man, shows interest in her, she is tamed by his charm and falls head over heels in love with him. Yielding to the temptations of love, Jahenda makes the biggest blunder in her life when she becomes pregnant and, as a result, is expelled from school, an outcome which derails her dreams for success. That is not all! She is shunned by most people in her rural community and must confront the stigma of having a child outside wedlock. To make matters worse, when Alan, the very young man responsible for her pregnancy, dies unexpectedly after a snake bite, this young mother finds herself at a crossroads in her life. What makes Jahenda’s story a compelling read, therefore, is her ability to harness her inner ambitions to emerge from her fix by doing the unthinkable and defying societal norms to save herself. What a cautionary tale! Will this teen mother’s last act be her saving grace?

This is a true story based on an inspiration from a talented village boy that used to play with toys at Wambui's grandma's place. Â This is an ideal gift to children who are 9-15 years old. The amazing story, with relevant illustrations, has been written to help young minds use scarce resources to innovate and build some incredible objects.
Maina, the boy in this book, is a brilliant and talented village boy who grew up with my grand parents at the foot of the Aberdare Ranges in central Kenya. He learnt to speak fast and even started building toys using plastic waste materials. He learnt a lot from my uncle who walked with him around the farm where cows and bulls were grazing. He also sat with my grand parents in the evenings and was taught a lot of things through story telling. For a number of years, Maina wished he could visit his cousins in the capital city, Nairobi. One day his mother surprised him with the long awaited visit. I hope you enjoy this interesting story.
