Mwenye Hadithi

    Mwenye Hadithi, meaning "he who has the stories," is a pen name adopted by Bruce Hobson. His upbringing amidst the diverse wildlife and expansive gardens of Kenya instilled a profound love for animals and the bush. This deep connection fuels his storytelling for children, where he translates his fascination with the natural world into engaging narratives. Inspired by vibrant artistic expression, Hobson crafts tales designed to captivate young readers with the wonders of the animal kingdom.
