In April 1965, Che Guevara set out clandestinely from Havana to Congo to head a force of some 150 veteran Cuban soldiers to assist the Congolese Patrice Lumumba Battalion, four years after the assassination of the democratically elected socialist president of Congo, Patrice Lumumba. Because this diary deals with what Che admits was a “failure”, he examines every painful detail about what went wrong in order to draw constructive lessons for planned future guerrilla movements.
Unique among his books, Congo Diary gives us Che’s brutal honesty and his story-telling ability as he recounts this fascinating episode of guerrilla warfare unblinkingly and without sugar coating or jargon.
Considered by some to be Che’s best book, it is also one of the few that he had a chance to edit for publication after writing it.

Multi award-winning author Chae Strathie teams up with illustrator
Francis Martin for this fabulously funny story about a feisty
little girl, her toy monkey and the mischievous adventures they get
up to. Francis's vibrant, quirky illustrations bring this story to
life capturing the wonders of the imagination and the chaos that
ensues when Pinkie and Boo get together. Pinkie loves being the
smallest in her family, but the arrival of a baby means everything
is about to change. It seems like the tiny new addition to the
family will get all the attention . . . and Pinkie isn't happy
about that. To cheer her up Mum and Dad give her a lovely toy
monkey called Boo. But it turns out there's much more to him than
meets the eye - at least in Pinkie's imagination. Their outrageous
efforts to regain some attention lead to a whole lot of mess and
mayhem, but everything works out happily in the end
