But she would love to try traveling in a tap-tap (a brightly painted share taxi) instead of walking.  This engaging book deftly portrays a way of life very different than our own (the boys wondered why Sasifi&#8217;s family did not just buy a car, which lead to an interesting discussion) and is gently humorous.
