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...
Na Willa is a little girl who likes to ask questions. Why can't she go home from school right now? Why can't she play with Farida when she has chickenpox? And, most importantly, why can't her nose be long and pointy like the people in magazines?
Na Willa's mother, Mak, does her best to explain why each time, and Na Willa's world keeps expanding. Also, Pak, her father, is back from sea! Now Na Willa couldn't be happier: playing with her friends, reading new books, and singing along to records. But then one day Pak brings some news that will change her life forever...
Based on Reda Gaudiamo's childhood in the 1960s, Na Willa and the House in the Alley is a collection of stories about a bright, open-hearted girl growing up in the city of Subaraya, in multicultural Indonesia. This is the sequel to The Adventures of Na Willa.
