Availability: In Stock
$181.08
SpecificationsAbout the Author Nelson Mandelas legacy lives on as his grandson Ndaba Mandela continues to keep its beacon of hope bright fueling its fiery message that one person can make a difference. Ndaba is the cofounder and cochairman of the Africa Rising Foundation an organization dedicated to promoting a positive image of Africa around the world and to increasing its potential for growth in the areas of education employment and international corporate alliances for profit and partnership. Ndaba is also the longest serving ambassador of UNAIDS which seeks to end discrimination around HIV/AIDS. Ndaba was named one of the "28 Men of Change" by Black Entertainment Television and is showing the world through his actions and orations that Nelson Mandelas voice and message of freedom still rings true. He lives in South Africa.Author 1 Ndaba MandelaBook Description The first-ever book to tell Nelson Mandelas life through the eyes of the grandson who was raised by him chronicling Ndaba Mandelas life living with and learning from one of the greatest leaders and humanitarians the world has ever known. To the rest of the world Nelson Mandela was a giant: an anti-apartheid revolutionary a world-renowned humanitarian and South Africas first black president. To Ndaba Mandela he was simply "Granddad." In Going to the Mountain Ndaba tells how he came to live with Mandela shortly after he turned eleven--having met each other only once years before when Mandela was imprisoned at Victor Verster Prison--and how the two of them slowly cautiously built a relationship that would affect both their lives in extraordinary ways. It wasnt an easy transition. Mandela had high expectations for those around him especially his family and Ndaba chafed at the strict rules and exacting guidelines in his grandfathers home. But at the same time--through overheard calls from foreign dignitaries as well as the Xhosa folk wisdom that his grandfather shared with him at every opportunity--Ndaba was learning how to be a man. On a scale both personal and epic Ndabas extraordinary journey mirrors that of South Africas coming of age--from the segregated Soweto ghettos into which he was born to the privileged life in which he grew up and the turbulent yet exciting times in which he carries on his grandfathers legacy. Going to the Mountain is in the end a story about unlocking the power within each of us. Its a cautionary tale about how a childs life can go one way or the other depending upon the intervention of a caring soul--and about the awesome power of love to serve as a catalyst for change.ISBN-13 9780316486576Language EnglishNumber of Pages 272Publication Date 26 June 2018Publisher Hachette Books SpecificationsAbout the Author Nelson Mandelas legacy lives on as his grandson Ndaba Mandela continues to keep its beacon of hope bright fueling its fiery message that one person can make a difference.

SpecificationsAbout the Author Irishman and internet sensation Benny Lewis was distinctly mediocre at languages at school and upon finding himself living in Spain at the age of 21 struggled for 6 months to form a few simple sentences. But now ten years on he has learned to speak over a dozen languages has travelled the world and has countless friends in many different countries.Author 1 Benny LewisBook Description Meet the man who makes the mission of learning any language possible! The all-you-need guide to learning a language. Language hacker Benny Lewis shows how anyone anywhere can learn any language without leaving their home using a simple toolkit and by harnessing the power of the Internet. Benny definitely wasn’t born with the ‘language gene’. After graduating in electronic engineering in his native Ireland he spent six months in Spain struggling to learn Spanish. This frustrating experience fuelled his determination to take a different approach to learning foreign languages. Today he speaks over ten languages including Mandarin Chinese Arabic French German Portuguese and Hungarian. He has also learnt Japanese in Spain. This typifies one of his ‘3-month challenges’ where he targets a new language and proceeds to become fluent in it within just three months. He charts his progress on his blog proving that his techniques allow anyone to learn a language from anywhere. Benny’s blog also called Fluent in 3 Months is the largest language learning blog in the world. The key principles of Benny’s method: • Speak from day one: find mother-tongue speaking partners online. Don’t be self-conscious – keep the flow going! • Change your mindset: ditch the excuses you can do it! • Stay focused and determined: even if you don’t have much time never forget the goal you’ve set yourself and work at it. • Learning a language doesn’t need to be expensive: there is a wealth of free resources out there if you know where to find them • Reap the rewards! Learning a new language is not an end in itself but a means to meeting new people and discovering new cultures. Curiosity will fuel your determination.ISBN-10 0007543921ISBN-13 0007543921Language EnglishNumber of Pages 258Publication Date 2014View Full Specifications SpecificationsAbout the Author Irishman and internet sensation Benny Lewis was distinctly mediocre at languages at school and upon finding himself living in Spain at the age of 21 struggled for 6 months to form a few simple sentences.
