JOURNEY TO JO'BURG by Beverley Naidoo
Is a novel with a black sister and his little brother as it cover,quite boring when me first saw it,but when I look carefully in their expression,it make me curious of it story.That a reason why I took it from the library and read it.
After read it,it really don’t disappoint me,it make me think and wonder how racist human can be and how it can affect the lives of those that suffer from it.Naledi and Tiro having hard time in they seach for they mother.It really touching and at the same time make you angry.I mean,if you are a black people, even to go out in a city you need a carry a some kind of pass like they are an outsider and if they not has it or maybe accidently left it at home,you were send to a prison farm.Even the start of story is already feel fast,Naledi and Tiro want they mother,Mma so that they can save they sick brother,it goes fast with they try to go out without they keeper,Nono and Mmangwane noticing.
The vocabulary in this book is not that hard to understand,even if you not understand meaning of a word,you could still get what the word is represent for by reading the whole sentence.
Lastly,all I can about this novel is that it is a serious and educating novel.It was not a novel about a fun journey or happy one, it is a novel that teach us in moral values.I very grateful I live in Malaysia and not been involve in racist society.I hope you all will try to read it in your free time.
