This one comes highly recommended by Bookbag. It's easy to read but tremendously affecting. And it talks about important issues - Zimbabwe matters, but ''Now is the Time for Running'' has something to say about how we treat refugees taken in by this country, too.
You might also enjoy [[Out of Shadows by Jason Wallace]], a gorgeous coming-of-age novel set in Zimbabwe in a time of political upheaval. I'd also suggest [[In Darkness by Nick Lake]], an intense and affecting exploration of Haiti through the eyes of a boy in the present, caught in the rubble of the great quake, and a 19th -century revolutionary leader. Anything by [[:Category:Elizabeth Laird|Elizabeth Laird]] will also appeal if you enjoyed ''Now is the Time for Running''.
You might appreciate [[Zimbabwe in Pictures by Keith Hern]].
