Raising The Chimutunga

About this book

Raising The Chimutunga by Agnes Mando Banda, PhD is a children's title with a strong connection to education, growth and the way young people are nurtured. Banda's wider work is closely associated with early childhood education, making the book particularly relevant to parents, teachers and children in learning environments. The title suggests that raising a child or young person is a shared process shaped by guidance, values, learning and community. As a children's story, it can be used not only for reading practice but also for discussion about responsibility, behaviour, family and development. It is suitable for homes, schools, libraries and early-childhood settings that want locally authored Zambian material rather than relying entirely on imported stories. Raising The Chimutunga contributes to the wider goal of placing children's growth and African experience at the centre of books written for young readers.
