Jambo, Mr Iron Bird: Adventures of a Teacher in Kenya

Iain Baird travelled to Kenya many times with groups of students and teachers as part of school linking projects. Jambo, Mr Iron Bird describes some of the many interesting events that took place during these visits and relates them to an overall view of Kenya, its people and its culture. It is clear that Iain has a deep affection for Kenya, however, his descriptions highlight both the highs and the lows that he experienced during his visits. The book contains amusing incidents travelling on public transport, as well as disturbing experiences when he travelled to Rwanda. The historical references that Iain uses to add to his descriptions are very informative and provide a useful back-story to what was taking place during the school twinning visits. Having fallen in love with Kenya during the school exchange visits he later travelled as a tourist with his wife and friends, which enabled him to see more of the wildlife and meet some wonderful people in other parts of Kenya.
