Lisa & Qhama Book 10: Prince Aljeandro's Magical Treehouse

By Brenda Wardle

Prince Aljeandro, is the eldest grandson of Queen Ntoyi and the apple of his grandmother's eye. One day, they visit three rural Eastern Cape properties, belonging to the Queen. In Ntafufu, Port St Johns, they go to the 'Joseph Wardle Memorial Estate'; in Lusikisiki, at the village of Kwa Ndayini, they visit 'The Fletcher Saunders Memorial Estate'; and, in Lambasi Bay, at Port Grosvenor, also situated in Lusikisiki, they visit the 'Embokodweni Residential Estate'. Whilst there, Prince Aljeandro hatches a brilliant plan for the construction of tree-houses at both the Ntafufu and Kwa-Ndayini sites. In Kwa-Ndayini, he wants a tree-house shaped like a golden chrysalis, constructed between the 'The Two Sisters' trees. At the Ntafufu site, he wants the tree-house nestled above the branches and the trunk of the giant oak tree, away from where the tree sheds its acorns, and brown, glossy seeds. Queen Ntoyi agrees and says that it is a brilliant idea. She engages a carpenter by the name of Mr Galloway, and the tree-houses are constructed off-site. Life being life, disaster strikes and the Queen goes away for three and a half years. When she returns, she now has a total of seven grandchildren and Prince Aljeandro rekindles the idea of the tree-houses in her mind. She is keen - only this time, she wants to ensure that she does not over-extend herself financially. She has come to appreciate the importance of saving money, the wisdom of living debt-free and she budgets to reimburse her workers and creditors, before the construction of her properties can even begin. Only then, does she plan on making the dream of her grandchildren a reality! Upon hearing the news of the tree-houses, the grandchildren are super-excited. They cannot wait for the day on which they will the see the trucks roll in, with the giant tree-houses and the wooden signs, making a huge impression upon the villagers and adding beauty to the pristine, rural scene! Prince Aljeandro smiles to himself, imagining the wooden sign bearing the words – ‘Welcome to Prince Aljeandro’s Magical Treehouse!’
