African tale with International appeal

I was delighted with this book and the American children with whom I shared it were entranced. I will be taking it with me as a gift to children in an orphanage near Nairobi but have already purchased a second copy to remain here in our church school.I highly recommend it!

Very Good Counting Book

Fine for 3-8 year-olds, as the title indicates, this is a good counting book that exposes childern to Nigerian culture.Wait, it's not boring. The author keeps the factual information to a minimum, just giving interesting tidbits of a different culture, so your little ones should find it compelling while mastering their counting.

One, two, three cheers for Emeka!

My toddler daughter and I discovered this book on display at a special African exhibit of the Iowa Children's Museum. In a state with precious little diversity, the children were so curious about Emeka's African village world - so different from Iowa farms. After looking at the pictures of village life, my daughter wrapped herself in brightly-colored African fabrics and danced around shaking the sheker - just like she saw in Emeka's Gift.
