Baggy pants! Oversized shoes! Loose fitting shirt! In the book Zinkulu kum! Luvo dreads going to school with baggy clothes fearing kids will laugh at and mock him. But his mother has a trick up her sleeve.
Iblukhwe enkulu! Izihlangu ezinkulu! Ihempe ejingayo! Kwincwadi u’Zinkulu kum!’ uLuvo uyoyika ukuya esikolweni nempahla ezinkulu kuba woyika ukuhlekwa ngabanye abantwana. Kodwa uMama wakhe uneqhinga lokuyisombulula le ngxaki.
