Oxford Bookworms Library Stage 4 Nelson Mandela Audio CD Pack
Rowena Akinyemi
STAGE 4 - Factfiles
In 1918 in the peaceful province of Transkei, South Africa, the Mandela family gave their new baby son the name Rolihlahla - 'troublemaker'. But the young boy's early years were happy ones, and he grew up to be a good student and an enthusiastic sportsman.
Who could imagine then what was waiting for Nelson Mandela - the tireless struggle for human rights, the long years in prison, the happiness and sadness of family life, and one day the title of President of
South
Africa?
