Swapping pageants for the pen, former Miss Botswana, Palesa Molefe has written her first book called, ‘O Shapo, O Sho?’
Written in Setswana, the children’s book consists of a collection of affirmations meant to ignite a spark of self-discovery and resilience in the hearts of young Batswana readers.
The story centres around a girl child, who, through the power of positive thinking is able to overcome feelings of fear, sadness and shyness.
Besides being a model and now author, Molefe is also an actress, producer and the founder of Botswana United Artists, a Non Governmental Organisation set-up to highlight the value of artists and mental health in society.
