Young Roblay is practicing for the big race. His grandfather points Roblay to the mighty Shabelle River, which is strong and swift like a cheetah. Can Roblay capture that spirit to be a winner of the race and become a man? Khadra Mohammed joins Karen Lynn Williams in retelling this Somali coming-of-age tale, beautifully illustrated by Julia Cairns. An appendix provides information on the endangered cheetah.
