Every girl in the village is afraid to make the long walk for water except Harriet. Sassy Shillah makes fun because she is jealous. “What makes you so much, Harriet Opio Madi? You are not as strong as a gorilla!”
But Harriet proves her courage when she faces the mean bush pig to get the water her family must have to live. Then one day, when Harriet discovers a little something, and, for the first time in her life, she is terrified. Sometimes we find our biggest fear in the tiniest places.
