"A good children's book touches the heart of it's young readers, and leaves them with a lesson learned. Mutware, The Amazing Elephant of Akagera Park, Rwanda is one of those books. This soft cover children's book, geared to a level that encourages reading, is a true story based on the experiences of Francois Nambajimana as told to Kathleen Weisner.
Francois Nambajimana of Paw Paw is a native of Rwanda in central Africa, where he was a renowned tour guide and expert on the natural places and animals of his native country. He shared his knowledge with many tourists until problems in Rwanda following the civil war brought him to the United States in 1999.
Nambajimana is an expert on the famed Mountain Gorillas of Karisoke Park in the Virunga Mountains of Rwanda. He learned his skill from the late Dian Fossey, who founded the research center there."
