If you have ever wondered how childhood dreams take flight, Mpoomy Ledwaba’s upcoming book “How Did We Get Here” is a quintessential example.
The South African star recently revealed her debut book cover on Instagram, announcing its availability in October. The journey that led to this milestone is, in her own words, nothing short of a dream permeated with fears and determination.
Mpoomy reminisced about how her connection with words and stories began during her early years at Middelburg Primary School, where she worked in the library. “Almost four years ago, that’s when I wrote the first lines of this book.

“I want to say it wasn’t time, but to be honest I feared I had nothing to say,” she reflected. Her dream of contributing to libraries and becoming an author seemed far-fetched for a girl like her in 2006, but fast forward to 2023, she has embraced the opportunity head-on.
So, what can readers expect with this highly anticipated book? Mpoomy hints at an engaging narrative filled with truth, cringe-worthy moments, laughter, and relatability.
She humbly states, “I don’t promise a fairytale, but I promise truth, cringe, laughter, relatability and sometimes far-fetched.” The anticipation and slight fear akin to a first day of school moment underscores the emotional investments she’s made in this project.
In summary, Mpoomy Ledwaba’s debut book is more than just pages filled with words; it’s a narrative that embodies her journey, struggles, and triumphs. With God holding her hand, as she so poignantly puts it, this book is set to touch lives and inspire many. October can’t come soon enough!
