Mamba Mnafiki: 4B

Mamba Mnafiki: 4B (The Hypocritical Crocodile: 4B) is a compelling Kiswahili fable for Grade 4 students, and the second book in the Upper Primary phase of the E.A.E.P. Visa na Vituko Readers series, authored by Bitugi Matundura. This Level 4B reader uses a traditional animal allegory to explore significant moral and ethical themes, focusing on deceit, trust, and the consequences of hypocrisy (mnafiki). The narrative structure and language are specifically calibrated to advance students' reading comprehension, challenging them to infer meaning, analyze character motivation, and engage with more abstract concepts. This text is crucial for consolidating the advanced Kiswahili literacy skills introduced at the start of Grade 4.
