If you’re gonna run for your life,
you gotta wear the right shoes.
Pre-teen shoe model Riley Mae laces up her flaming orange Sole Fire running shoes for another ad campaign―this time in Kenya, Africa! Kenya is the perfect place for runners to train, with its high elevation and encouragement from Olympic athletes. It’s also a great hiding place for Riley and her Swiftriver friends from so-called enemies back in the United States … but for how long?
Adjusting to a new culture is difficult. Every chore is tiring, school is miles away, and there’s always the threat of a lurking lion that can ruin everything. But after spending time with the children and Christian women in her friend Sunday’s remote village, Riley finds herself growing stronger and praying for God to use her to spread the good news. Her prayers are answered in exciting and startling ways when she meets an orphaned girl seeking answers at a children’s home, but also when an error in judgment causes her to stumble into a surprise meeting with the enemy.

This book was like... bleh. It was soooooo boring that I thought it was never going to end. Riley Mae is (obviously) the main character who does nothing other than trying to be cool but epicly failing! Maybe it wasn't that bad but still!
I really enjoyed this book. It had a lot of adventure and you didn't know what was going to happen next if a bad guy would pop out or a rhino would.
This is a great book for young girls to read. I really liked it. It sent out a very good message and was very interesting.
I loved this book! It was full of action and adventure! It was really cool how the book also had a lot of facts about Africa in it!
