Sammy Becomes a Man in Africa is a humorous and heartwarming coming-of-age adventure that follows 15-year-old Sammy Jackson from the bustling streets of New York City to the vibrant villages of Africa. Sent by his parents to connect with his roots, Sammy embarks on a wild summer journey filled with ancient traditions, daring rites of passage, and unforgettable life lessons.

From fasting in Nigeria and storytelling in Ghana to bull-jumping in Ethiopia and facing crocodiles with the Zulu warriors, Sammy's experiences are both hilarious and humbling. Along the way, he learns about strength, courage, respect, and the African philosophy of Ubuntu-the idea that we are all connected.

Perfect for middle-grade and young adult readers, this culturally rich and action-packed tale proves that manhood isn't just about bravery-it's about unity, compassion, and discovering who you truly are.
