Without A Silver Spoon
Winner of the International Board on Books for Young People, Certificate of Honour, Without A Silver Spoon is a didactic story for young people, teaching them that honesty is the best policy. It celebrates African family values. Ure comes from a poor but honest family, and works as a houseboy to pay his own school fees. Towards the end of his primary school days he is accused of stealing money; and he is saved by the well-placed total trust of his parents and his teacher.
Without A Silver Spoon is an interesting read.
