" I am delighted to be able to introduce Shivani C. Suraiya. Shivani is Grade 9 student at Mzizima Secondary School. Her teachers describe her as a diligent eager student with a keen sense of humor. To have a student writing books is very special. This is especially so in a country where reading and writing is not given the importance and the time that it deserves. To have a student being so involved in this area is a good example to her fellow students. Education and learining are gained through accessing information through the Internet, books and magazines. This requires good reading and writing skill. Mzizima is proud to assist in sponsoring this book for two very good reasons:
- The profits from the book is going to help the community
- The school is keen to promote reading and writing
I hope you will enjoy reading this book; it introduces me to many new animals. May be one day Shivani will write about birds and will feature New Zealand's flightless bird the Kiwi. " Regards, Salvatore Head of Aga Khan Mzizima Secondary School, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
" Shivani has demonstrated how a young girl can write about fruits and animals. The outcome is that one come accross lots of new information that was not know to the individual. I could read about animals that I have not read in my regular studies. It is admireable that she has given her proceedings from the book for charitable purpose. I am confident that Shivani will be writing more books in coming future. Wishing her all the best. " Shital Ashar, Relative, Mumbai, India
