Blurb:
Kulani asks her parents to buy her xibelani for her birthday. Her friend Risuna thinks it’s a silly present. But Risuna changes her mind when she sees Kulani dancing in her xibelani on national heritage day.
UKulani ucela abazali bakhe ukuba bamthengele isibhelane ngosuku lwakhe lokuzalwa. Umngane wakhe uRisuna ucabanga ukuthi yisipho esibhedayo. Kepha uRisuna uguqula umqondo wakhe uma ebona uKulani esina ngesibhelane sakhe ngosuku lwamagugu lukazwelonke.
