After losing their parents to the AIDS pandemic in southern
Africa, Sipho and his fellow orphans cannot start school. Without an education,
their prospects of escaping poverty are slim. Enter Aiyasha, the
fifteen-year-old head of the orphan household. Aiyash uses her special talent
to ensure her orphan charges receive the education they crave. But Aiyasha has
a wider agenda: to promote social justice in her country where orphans will no
longer have the “dumb” label attached to them.
