Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood by Trevor Noah

challenging funny informative medium-paced

4.0

Trevor Noah talks about his childhood and growing up as a child of mixed race in Africa. Noah touches on themes of racism, poverty, family, and his first heartbreak. We got to learn about the struggles Noah faced fitting in during his years at school. It was also fun to read about his relationship with his mother, how their opinions differ on certain topics, and the empathy Noah has developed while reflecting on her parenting style. It was interesting to read about someone who had a much different childhood than I did.
