This book is based on Karani Kennedys experiences of working with street children for years in Nairobi. Street children are ostracised from the main stream society and they are invisible to the society. They are children who come from troubled and dysfunctional families. They are associated with crime and therefore not entertained at all by the society. They scavenge for food and as a result they have been labelled “Chokora” Chokora in Kenya is a derogatory Swahili term synonymous with scavenging. It is treatment like this that plunges street children into deep abysmal stigma that impedes the process of rehabilitation.
