Nakai is a bright, curious, and ambitious nine-year old girl who lives with her parents in Labadi, a small village in Ghana, West Africa. She has never owned a pair of real shoes beyond the makeshift ones her father crafts for her at the start of the school year. One day, while selling her mother's nut bread at the market to help support her family, she finds a surprising treasure that inspires a quest: a Sears catalog from the United States. She is absolutely mesmerized by the American fashions-especially a dazzling pair of red shoes. Excited and inspired, she races home to share her discovery. Undaunted by her parents, who sadly admit that they cannot afford to buy the shoes for her, Nakai becomes more determined than ever to solve her problem. She quickly decides to find a way to buy them for herself. With the help of her independent-minded pet goat, Bongo, she embarks on a series of adventures and plans-some more successful than others-to raise the money she needs to buy her very first pair of shoes.

Genealogical research not only reveals our family history, but inevitably draws us into the historical events which shaped the lives of our ancestors, and the destiny of our country. My Patriot Ancestor, Vincent Hudson, served in the Revolutionary War with Washington's Army at Valley Forge and at Yorktown. He again served in the War of 1812 with his two sons. Vincent Hudson's grandson, James Vincent Hudson/Hall, was coxswain on-board the ship-of-the-line U.S.S. Ohio, and played an important role during the decisive battle of Vera Cruz, in the War with Mexico. After the War with Mexico, James Vincent Hudson/Hall became an outfitter in Coloma during the California gold rush of 1849. Vincent Hudson's great-great-grandfather, Edward Hudson lived on the Jamestown plantation during the census of 1623/24. He patented 100-acres of land on the James River in the County of Henricus in 1626. He accompanied Colonel William Claiborne to Kent Island in the Chesapeake Bay as part of the first settlement in Maryland in 1631.
