In a land of rain and red soil, a young girl named Pendo dares to dream beyond her village. From frog jars to debate trophies, from heartbreak to hope, The Girl Who Wanted to Fly / La Niña que Quería Volar traces one girl's journey through childhood, identity, and resilience across languages, landscapes, and expectations. Told in lyrical bilingual text, this coming-of-age story by Kenyan-born, Spain-based author Brenda Bonuke Bogonko invites readers into Pendo's world of small joys and quiet courage. With warmth, humor, and honesty, Brenda crafts a tender portrait of a girl learning not just to rise but to fly.
