    About this ebook

    A Boy Called Achebe. 
    He had a poor background, struggling with poor academic performance, displayed his foolishness, was ridiculed and mocked, encountered divine help, prided himself beyond control in his newly-found help, met disgrace and shame once again But at the peak of his shame and downfall, he met something else unexpectedly. 
    He who rises by humility must stay humble even at the height of success. (Unknown).
