An exciting new story about a dodgy election in the African desert setting up a new chase for Sophie, the tough and spirited little girl and her erstwhile friend, the albino camel. Terrific adventure, almost Kiplingesque in its humour and writing style, children from 6+ will love the wonderful story and the surprising ending. Sophie’s previous exploits include Sophie and the Locust Curse.

About The Author
Stephen Davies is a missionary living amongst Fulani herders in West Africa. He speaks Fulfulde, eats millet, accompanies cattle-drives and preaches the gospel in culturally relevant ways. At present he is working towards the set up of a Fulfulde radio station, which will broadcast news, griot music and advice about cows, crops and health. He also writes for the Guardian Weekly (letters from Bukina Faso) and occasionally for the Sunday Times.
