Mwanaisha James (11), Children in the Wilderness - Malawi

Mwanaisha is in Grade 3 and when she grows up, she would like to be a teacher. Her favourite activities during camp were playing and singing. Her most enduring quality was her friendliness and her enthusiastic intelligence. She promised that she would work hard at getting the message to people about the value of wildlife and try to discourage her relatives from killing wild animals and carelessly cutting down trees. She was everyone’s friend and helped wherever needed. When she had to say who her new friend that she made at camp was she said: she is now a friend of nature!
