The Stories

Our stories celebrate the richness of African life, culture, and imagination, inviting children to see themselves as learners, dreamers, and heroes. From inspiring journeys like “I Am a Nigerian in STEM” and “I Am a Nigerian in Music”, to timeless wisdom in “Amina Learns from Mr. Tortoise” and heartfelt moments in “First Day, First Friend”, each book opens a new world of discovery.

Our growing library is designed to spark creativity, curiosity, courage, and a lifelong love of learning — all through stories that feel familiar, meaningful, and proudly African.

Rewards & Learning

Our Rewards & Learning section turns every reading adventure into an exciting achievement. As children explore the library, they earn colourful badges for milestones like finishing books, discovering different story categories, and building healthy reading habits.

Along the way, fun quizzes help reinforce what they’ve learned, with questions covering topics such as music, nature, science, and more. By completing quizzes and collecting badges, children are encouraged to stay curious, track their progress, and feel proud of their growing knowledge — making learning feel playful, rewarding, and confidence-building.
