The trunk is made of steel to repel rats and termites. It's padlocked to protect it´s valuable contents: around 100 volumes of fiction, non-fiction and reference books. It´s constantly on the move, trundling by donkey or bicycle cart to schools in Somalia, Sudan, South Sudan and Uganda (all former war zones, understandably short of books). The supply is refreshed every month. It´s a story that needs to be told.
