Speaking at Cape Times newsroom yesterday during her visit, Stacey said: “It takes inspiration, hard work and focus to be an author.

“The trip to Cape Town has been a wonderful experience for me and my mother. The schools we visited have been very interactive and have supported me by buying copies of my books. One of the schools will be donating money to the Stacey Fru Foundation. “This money will fund my ‘African Book a Child Campaign’ and help me give African books and books by African authors to more children. The tour has been very great. Seeing the different places and mountains and the view is very amazing. Some main key moments are when I talked to the children and I see the look on their faces, I know that I have made my mark.” See Also: Migos Joburg Concert: Mabala Noise Explains The Three-Hour Delay According to her mother Victorine Mbong Shu, they were well received in the city. “It goes a long way – especially here in the Western Cape. We found a lot of enthusiasm. There is that disparity between children – those who really want to make it in education and those who cannot make it.” While we are only familiar with a few of her works, her mother said Stacey Fru has written seven books.
