A little boy living in an African village describes his mother and the love he feels for her.

An African boy describes the week-long village festival in celebration of his sister's wedding.

This is a great book about a young boy named, Jafta, and his adventures. This book has some nice illustrations and would be used in my classroom as a recreational book. The grades that this book would be suitable for would be 1 and 2 and the theme could be Africa.

Jafta was a little boy who relates his emotions and feelings to animals.It has pictures of many animals with onomatopoeias. It encourages children to think and compare. K-3.
