He lives together with his mother and little sisters in the slums of Nairobi, the capital of Kenya.

Unfortunately, his mother can no longer afford his school fee and Kimaru is kicked out of school; something that happens often to children living in the slums. One day, aunt Ursula comes to visit the family and brings Kimaru a box of chickens as a surprise. If all goes well, the chickens will soon start laying eggs every day, and Kimaru will be able earn 15 euro a month. This will supplement his family’s income and will be enough for Kimaru to go to school again. But rearing chicks is not easy at all for a city boy like Kimaru. Will he succeed in starting a small business in eggs to help meet his school fees?
