Kubi is afraid of the dark path through the cassava field that leads to her auntie house. Every evening she finds a reason not to go. Then one evening her mother cannot make the journey, and the errand falls to Kubi alone. What she discovers on that path — not at the end of it, but halfway through it — changes what the word brave means to her. A quiet, warm story about fear, the courage that lives inside small bodies, and the surprising thing that happens when you keep walking. For ages 4 to 8.
