Beschreibung

Across the rolling hills and rugged plains of southern Africa, two worlds collided in one of the most unforgettable conflicts of the 19th century. This gripping nonfiction book brings young readers face-to-face with the bravery, choices, and struggles of both the mighty Zulu nation and the powerful British Empire. Packed with real stories and vivid details, it shows how ordinary people became heroes, how leaders made impossible decisions, and how a proud kingdom stood up to one of the strongest armies in the world.Kids will discover why the Zulu fought so fiercely to defend their land, how British soldiers risked everything thousands of miles from home, and what life was really like for families caught in the middle. They’ll meet legendary figures like Shaka, Cetshwayo, and the defenders of Rorke’s Drift, while also learning about the farmers, chieftains, and children who lived through the war.Through easy-to-understand language and a conversational tone, this book explores big ideas like respect, courage, and the true cost of conflict. It also shows how the Zulu people’s culture survived and thrived, and why their story still matters today. Perfect for curious readers who love true tales of history, heroes, and hard choices.

    The Man in the Moon came tumbling down, 
    And enquired the way to Norwich; 
    He went by the south and burned his mouth 
    With eating cold pease porridge! 
    WHAT! have you never heard the story of the Man in the Moon? Then I must surely tell it, for it is very amusing, and there is not a word of truth in it. 
    The Man in the Moon was rather lonesome, and often he peeked over the edge of the moon and looked down upon the earth and envied all the people who lived together, for he thought it must be vastly more pleasant to have companions to talk to than to be shut up in a big planet all by himself, where he had to whistle to keep himself company. 
    One day he looked down and saw an alderman sailing up through the air towards him. This alderman was being translated (instead of being transported, owing to a misprint in the law) and as he came near the Man in the Moon called to him and said, 
    "How is everything down on the earth?" 
    "Everything is lovely," replied the alderman, "and I wouldn't leave it if I was not obliged to." 
    "What's a good place to visit down there? enquired the Man in the Moon. 
    "Oh, Norwich is a mighty fine place," returned the alderman, "and it's famous for its pease porridge;" and then he sailed out of sight and left the Man in the Moon to reflect upon what he had said.
