Description
"Welcome to a world turned upside down. Welcome to the world of Doris. One minute she's playing hide-and-seek with her sisters in the fields behind their cottage. The next, someone puts a bag over her head and she ends up in the stinking hold of a slave ship sailing to the New World. When she finally arrives on a strange tropical island, Doris discovers she is, in fact, a pig-ugly savage with a brain the size of a pea, whose only purpose in life is to please her mistress. Things don't get any better when she becomes personal assistant to the formidable Bwana, a.k.a. Chief Kaga Konata Katamba I, or when she experiences the horrors of life in the sugarcane fields, where slaves are worked to death under the blazing sun. And all the while she dreams of escape, of finding those she has loved and lost, and of returning home to her motherland, England."--BOOK JACKET.
