(My) Humans of Ghana Pt. IV

"I designed this myself. You see me always drawing different, different designs in my book and now I made this one with the string you gave us. It's a mouse kicking a ball. It wasn't hard for me to do because I've been designing for a long time now, so I just know how to do it (Matilda is 12, and she's been designing since last year). You know the seamstress we went to last week? Well my mother wanted me to quit school and work for her, to make money for the family. But I told her No, I said I wanted to stay in school and go to designer school at university. When I grow up I will be a fashion designer and I will make a lot of money." -Matilda
