Welcome! We are pleased to announce the release of Chi Emerole’s first book, A Rose in the Desert.

A Rose in the Desert is the story of a young girl, Rose, who awakens on her seventh birthday on the Tibesti mountains of Chad in a refugee camp. She is however determined to have a beautiful birthday. My story follows Rose through an adventurous day with her family and friends. Do you think she succeeded in her quest for a beautiful birthday?

A Rose in the Desert was inspired by the current crisis in Darfur and the reality that millions of families currently live in refugee camps.
