"Dumb Orphans" is a wonderful and endearing tale about a gathering of nonconformist creatures. I especially adored the savvy and kind fox who guides them in tracking down their position on the planet. The book is not difficult to peruse and loaded up with lively representations that rejuvenate the story. The drawing in storyline highlights amiable and comical characters, making it a delight to follow.

It likewise passes on sure messages about kinship, reliability, and collaboration — values that kids can convey into adulthood. By and large, this is a pleasant and instructive read with a sweet message that resounds profoundly.

This book highlights the resilience and strength of young orphans like Aiyasha, who, despite facing daunting circumstances, remain hopeful and determined. Through her journey, the author demonstrates how resilience and a strong will to succeed can empower individuals to rise above society's labels and limitations. Nice review.

This book is about a very charming family of orphans, all under 8 years of age except their 15-year-old caregiver Aiyasha. She has just been orphaned as well. The sample I read told how two of these children, Sipho and Jabu, found their toddler sister Elah wrapped in a blanket and abandoned near the river. AIDS has been ravaging the young adult population in southern Africa. This should be an enjoyable read. I have a feeling these tough resilient, little orphans are not as '"dumb" as community headman Mayego thinks. I loved the review.

review of ""Dumb" Orphans" by Allan Low.]

Aiyasha, orphaned at the age of fifteen, is given the responsibility of taking care of seven other orphans without adequate food, good living conditions, and education. Amidst the taunts from Samu and Meyego, these did not stop looking on the bright side of lifeI love how the book was divided into three reasonably easy parts to read and grasp. Its tone, organization, structure, punctuation, and illustrations made this book a beautiful and inspiring story. I disliked nothing about the book. Though I stumbled on a couple of mistakes, it isn't enough to make me doubt that this book was still well-edited. Hence, in glad to rate this book 5 out of 5 stars

Having read the first three chapters, I felt a lot of emotions while doing so. There was sadness, as it is true that a lot of young children in different countries have similar situations to the characters in the book. Just by that fact, this book has tugged my heartstrings that made the tears fall from my eyes. To think such children, with their circumstances, need to be matured and "grow up" so that they can fend for themselves is truly heartbreaking because they are just kids who needs the care and love of their parents.

I also felt awe that even in their situation, they are determined to live and still have a positive outlook in their life. Their resiliency is something to be appreciated and be looked upon because not all adults can be resilient at tough times.

Reading this, I was really inspired to help orphaned and street kids even more. This was a nice read, would definitely buy the whole book.

[Elavarasi Charles]

This is a great review of the book and draws out the valuable themes that the readers might be looking to explore with. Kids giving hope to adults, especially when it should be the other way around, through the disparity of their fate is heart-wrenching. Congratulations on the BOTM.

[Rose Nafula Oketch]

Any and every dream is achieved when you are resilient and determined; kids should learn and know these great traits early in their lives. It is tough to be an orphan at a young age, and they deserve to be protected and someone to stand for them. Congratulations on BOTD!

Although I have only read samples and reviews, what a book by Allan Low! It's alarming what we suffer in society these days, especially what we do to our own people. Every child truly is important and deserves the same quantity and quality of care and support, yet the provisions put in place by the government fall short by a mile. Although the Bundu Bunch were labeled "dumb" by other privileged children, resilience and determination flavored their stay in Bundami. This seems to be a story of determination and resilience, especially from the orphans. Huge congrats on BOTD! I’ll surely give this book a try.

[Hance Deus]

This book is gold, the story shows the struggle the of trying to succeed in life with all odds against you, the author potrayed vividly most of challenges we Africans face in life. I'd recommend this to people of all ages to read it, it has good lesson and motivation.

[Ohanele Chinonyerem]

This book tackles the harsh realities of inequality and neglect, advocating for less privileged children's education and wellbeing.
