This remarkable storybook and companion activity book combination for both children and adults tells the true story of a courageous young princess who grew to be a military leader and hero. Queen Nzingha is a wise and fearless warrior of the Mbundu people of Angola who defended the kingdoms of Ndongo and Matamba from Portuguese colonizers and drove them back into the sea from which they came. This combo makes a beautiful gift for anyone age 9+. Both books are beautifully-illustrated and the storybook includes a glossary of terms. Great book for mom, dad and child to read and discuss as a family.
