Na Willa's days are spent happily in her little house in the alley,
until, one day, Pak brings some news that will change her life
forever...
In this sequel to The Adventures of Na Willa (2019), our heroine Na
Willa's days are still filled with excitement and simple joys: playing
with her friends, reading new books, and singing along to the radio. And
now Pak, her father, is back from sea! Pak takes Na Willa to school,
goes for ice cream and paints the house.
On the way home, I tell Pak all about my friends Asih, Eko and Endang.
I tell him about Joko who speaks only Javanese, Gatot who never finishes
his sentences, Sumi who cries every time she doesn't finish her
colouring, and Sri who is always laughing at her. By the time I finish
all these stories, Pak can't stop laughing.
And while he rides, just like Mak, Pak loves to sing and make up his
own songs. Mak often sings about the flowers in the garden - the roses
and jasmine - but Pak makes up a song all about me and my friends.
'Willa, oh Willa, in her new school she has many friends!
There is Gatot, Sumi, Ekoooo, Asih, Endang, Sriiiii, and Jokoooo!'
Ahhhh, I love Pak's song.
