(3) YA Sixteen-year-old Chanda, living in a fictional sub-Saharan African country, has family and friends afflicted with AIDS who, because of shame and fear, keep their disease a secret. In this moving story, Chanda must first admit a problem exists and then deal with it through her own resources, making one small break in the cycle of secrecy.
