Her Story

As a kid I was given some advice. Say thank you, say sorry, wait till they hit you and then hit them hard enough that they don't think of hurting you again. Looking back, I realize I got enough opportunities to do all of that. But I did not. I stayed quiet and forgot all about it. Until one day the memories came back. That’s why Wulu talks about Zakir and Juli and you and me, and the children we once were. Wulu gives ideas, stories and reasons to inculcate healthier norms and start difficult conversations. Can you negotiate with your parents? Does the boy at school have the right to force you into being his girlfriend? Should you call the healthy kid ‘fatty’ because the popular kids are shouting that? What can you do and what should you allow to happen? Wulu makes kids think. 6 full time 18 part time "Card game and picture books for children (pre-teens)
