Joseph Lemasolai Lekuton faced many tough things in his life as a young boy. In 1965, Kenya was in a tough spot. There was a drought that lasted for about 2 years. Kenya was struggling in terms of food. Some families starved but eventually there was enough water for people to eat and feed their cows. Sadly, Kenya is still in a bad spot today. Economically speaking, They have had a mercurial economy ever since their economy became independent. During their years of independence, they've accomplished high economic growth of only six percent. Then, in the 1990's, Kenya was producing more growth rates which resulted seven percent in 2007. I think that's incredible. Do you?

I am reading the book “Long walk to water” and your book seems like a pretty good book. Speaking of your book I can't believe that happened to Kenya and the people. During the drought that Kenya had a lot of people died and there was barely any food. ): When they got their independence back, there economic activity went up and people didn't die as often.Yes, I do think its very awesome how Kenya got back on the feet, and found there way to survival.
