23. Villagers You live in the village of Toot, where you were born. There are about 100 people in Toot. Families live together, in small huts. Work: The women and children grow crops and most of the men look after the goats, which they can sometimes sell. There is a school where children go up to 10 years old. Women cannot read or do simple sums, although some men can. Power: There is a Chief in the village. When you have an important decision to make, like marriage or buying or selling property, you ask the village chief what to do. In families, the men decide what everyone else does. Problems: Every year, there is a dry season when there is little water and little food. When there is no food and water, the men go away to find work in the town.
