HORNBILL'S DAUGHTER
Hornbill’s Daughter is a description of an indigenous young girl who lives a life with determination and perseverance. It is an intriguing story of a long hard journey with many obstacles and challenges. Raduk Biru, a young native girl growing up in a village on the island of Borneo, realizes that life is not all a paved road, but often a road with potholes and detours. With all the hardships she encountered, she saw hope and focused on the solution not on the problem. As she goes through the experiences of life, she handles them with sense of sensibility and a speck of humor to balance out life’s adversity. She painfully carried out her desire in silence to save face from her critics. This is an inspiring and heart warming book.
Stories like this help us to marvel at the human spirit. Young Angela was determined to be educated and conquer the trials and tribulations of the 1950"s and 60"s in Borneo. Angela's courage and faith guided her on her journey of growth. This book is a must read as it gives insight into a brave young girl's will to overcome and become while still holding a place in her heart for her heritage. That shows real fire in the belly.

I really enjoyed this book. I knew nothing about her country and she told in her own unique way of growing up on the Island of Borneo in the 1950s and 1960s. I was fascinated to read about her tenacity in setting her goal of getting an education in spite of the handicap of being born a "girl child" and to see where her choices took her. I am hoping she will write the sequel and tell of her life since coming to the US. It will be another good read.
