Rwanda: The Cow That Wanted to Be Human
()
About this ebook
In Rwanda, there once lived a farmer named Karekezi who heard someone calling out his name as he pulled a large cartful of harvested crops into town.
He looked around, but all he saw was a few cows in the distance. That cant be! he thought. Is it one of those cows calling me?
When he walked over to the cows, to his amazement, one of them said, Hello my name is Indatwa the cow, and Im delighted to be here with you right now.
Farmer Karekezi asked Indatwa (which means prized cow) if it had a home, and when he found out it didnt, he invited it to take shelter on his farm. But he pointed out his house in the distance and warned that it must never go yonder and look around and ponder.
But it wasnt long before a two-headed snake crawled out of the ground and urged Indatwa to ignore its promise to the farmer.
Will the cow break its promise, and if so, what consequences will it face? Find out in Rwandaa story with a powerful lesson.
