The Mono Benson Nyangiro

Being a mono in the Kenyan school system is much the same as being a freshman anywhere else in the world, only more so. When Chumbe started at a new boarding school, monos were the low man on the totem pole, but someone forgot to tell him that. Follow Chumbe and his group of misfits as they navigate the challenges of boarding school life, fighting back against the bullying that comes from students and teachers alike, and getting into mischief at every turn. It's a story of shared struggle, shared joy, and a shared effort to rise above a system that they feel is there to keep them down, all set against the backdrop of East African culture and family life. Go along this journey by picking up a copy of The Mono today.
