A Girl Named Disaster: Nhamo is an orphan in Africa. her aunts hate her, her uncle dislikes her, her cousins don't know what to think, her grandmother loves her, and the rest of the village thinks she's a witch. When an epidemic of cholera strikes the village, they journey to a muvuki, or witch-doctor. He says that Nhamo must be sent to a man she doesn't even know as a wife. She is under twelve. Grandmother orders her to run away to the mysterious Zimbabwe and find the rest of her family. But the journey goes badly wrong.
I really enjoyed this book. I read it twice. It was really interesting about all the spirit stuff they believed(believe?) in. the ancestors, witches, water spirits, etc.
