Pathfinders are refreshingly exciting readers that entertain and enlighten. They have been deliberately written and designed to encourage wide reading of creative works. Reading the stories should form a firm foundation for more elaborate study of literature. Kalasanda is a collection of exciting and cheerful stories based on village life in Old Buganda around independence time. Some of the stories in this collection, including The Winner and The Bewitching of Damien, have been part of anthologies studied as set books in East African countries in the past. Readers will find these stories particularly humourous.
