Thank you to the author for finding a way to reach our Yoruba kids home and abroad. I purchased this lovely book and the kids love it. Even though they can’t read but the pictures were beautifully and carefully curated.Ẹ ṣe gan o 🙏🏾

It’s such a lovely book, that is well written to keep children enlightened about Yoruba language and culture, while also entertaining. I am particularly amazed by how my kids were drawn to it. This is now part of their routine bed time storybooks which they now use to pick up on their Yoruba on a daily. Well done, E kú isé, Kayode Oloko.

I’m very surprised with the way my 5-year-old girl became attracted to this book. My experience using the book is that it makes children fall in love with reading Yoruba language. The names and concepts of the story, as well as the graphics, are very intentional and it really worked, because my girl became curious to know about so many words and stories behind their usage. This is a very good book to arouse the interest of young kids in learning Yoruba language and culture.
