The Girl With The Louding Voice

by Abi Dare
Adunni is a poor 14-year-old Nigerian girl who works as a housemaid for a wealthy family in Logos.  Her employers are cruel and unfeeling and treat her terribly.  Yet, she preservers even under the most challenging circumstances.  She is determined to escape this terrible situation and attend school to make a better life for herself. The Girl With The Louding Voice by Abi Dare

Book Summary


The unforgettable, inspiring story of a teenage girl growing up in a rural Nigerian village who longs to get an education so that she can find her "louding voice" and speak up for herself, The Girl with the Louding Voice is a simultaneously heartbreaking and triumphant tale about the power of fighting for your dreams.

Despite the seemingly insurmountable obstacles in her path, Adunni never loses sight of her goal of escaping the life of poverty she was born into so that she can build the future she chooses for herself - and help other girls like her do the same.

Her spirited determination to find joy and hope in even the most difficult circumstances imaginable will "break your heart and then put it back together again" (Jenna Bush Hager on The Today Show) even as Adunni shows us how one courageous young girl can inspire us all to reach for our dreams and maybe even change the world.
