I Want to Be an Airline Pilot

For 8-11s

If you want your children to be encouraged in their faith and learn about another culture, this is the book for you.

There are so many negative messages bombarding our children. This delightful book is a breath of fresh air. Don’t let yours miss out.

It’s time to invest in their future.

Shema, an eight-year-old Rwandan goatherd from a child-led family, has many adventures, including a goat eating his only T-shirt, a frightening visit to a medicine man and a dangerously close brush with a spitting black cobra! Though them all, little by little Shema learns about “Mister God” and discovers that although he is in an orphan, he has a Father in heaven who cares for him.

A victorious, heart-warming story for 8-11s, with lovely background to life in rural Rwanda

“I think this book is very good, it made me feel happy, sad and really excited; I think the most interesting part is when Shema faced the black cobra. It was also very moving when in the book Ishimwe starts to cry because her parents died. I really enjoyed this book. It is one of my favourites.” – Kemi

“A thrilling adventure story about three orphans’ dreams coming true when their prayers were answered.” – Jonathan

“I give this book 10/10.” – Ellie
