Rebeka Uwitonze was born in Rwanda with curled and twisted feet, which meant she had to crawl or be carried to get around. At nine years old, she gets an offer that could change her life. A doctor in the US might be able to turn her feet. But it means leaving her own family behind

Through her eyes, the moving story of a young Rwandan girl born with clubfeet and the risk she takes for the chance to walk on the bottoms of her feet for the first time.
Rebeka Uwitonze was born in Rwanda with curled and twisted feet, which meant she had to crawl or be carried to get around. At nine years old, she gets an offer that could change her life. A doctor in the US might be able to turn her feet. But it means leaving her own family behind and going to America on her own.

Her Own Two Feet tells Rebeka's inspiring story through her eyes, with the help of one of her hosts. She travels from Rwanda to Austin, Texas, to join the Davis family, despite knowing almost no English. In the face of dozens of hospital visits and painful surgeries, Rebeka's incredible bravery and joyful spirit carry her to the opportunity of a lifetime. A stunning debut about hope, perseverance, and what becomes possible when you take a risk.

They Have Flavor
Size: 16 OZ
Most of the time, these strawberries are fresh and great tasting. One of our orders was came with the "California Giant" brand. They were less flavorful and some had mildew. These later ones I'd give 2 stars (which actually asked to return them and received credit). Amazon is excellent with backing up their sales.

Everyone in my neighborhood loves these!
Size: 16 OZ
When we find an especially great fresh food product on Amazon, the neighbors spread the word. These strawberries area always all ripe (no green ones or rotten ones hiding in the bottom), and delicious. Great price, too. I use them in salads, smoothies, and fresh fruit snacks.

Upon arrival I looked at them and didn’t think they were going to be good. Turned out they’re delicious. They were sweet, huge , and very fresh.
