Stories From The Heart

Mbilu means heart in Tsonga, the language of my roots. Mbilu Tales is where my heart and heritage meet storytelling. Each tale is a song for little dreamers, a dance for little explorers, and a bright mirror for children to see the beauty of who they are. Our heroines are bold, radiant, and full of joy, carrying with them the warmth of home and the wonder of adventure. Stories for every child, everywhere.

About Khanyi and the Kite

Take flight with Khanyi and her pug, Momo, in this joyful Afrocentric picture book about love, courage, and endless possibilities.

Fresh from Kokwani’s kitchen, Khanyi’s bold, bright, and beautiful kite is ready for the skies. But when the wind carries it away, Khanyi and Momo set off on a playful chase through the park. Along the way, Khanyi remembers Kokwani’s timeless words:

“Fly, my little kite, fly high in the sky…
Your world is endless, your world will always be new.”

With vibrant Pixar-style illustrations, rhythmic storytelling, and themes of family, resilience, and imagination, Khanyi and the Kite is a celebration of heritage and hope.

Perfect for ages 3–7, this book will delight children at story time and inspire them to believe in their own boundless journeys.
