"Our doll came to Bohemia from Tengenenge. It has all the attributes of what is an African child's perception of a doll. It's actually a small stone girl who takes care of her younger siblings. Its author is an outstanding Zimbabwean woman sculptor. I believe that it has in itself a lot of sunshine and that it will bring a joy."
