Africa, Amazing Africa: Country by Country

Book Synopsis

A first, personal introduction to the Africa continent for young children aged 4+ from Nigerian storyteller Atinuke.

Africa, Amazing Africa is Atinuke’s first introduction to the African continent – an exciting starting point for young children aged 4+. With double-pages to introduce the different regions of Africa (South, East, West, Central and North), each country in Africa is then represented on one page with a colourful half-page illustration from artist Mouni Feddag, a paragraph of descriptive text and then one to three facts, geared towards readers aged four and up; imagined as a diving-off point, to give a sense of the variety of the continent and inspire young readers to find out more about each country.

Our Review Panel says...

This non-fiction book is British-Nigerian storyteller Atinuke’s personal love letter to the African continent, and its 55 countries in all their variety. It divides Africa into five sections: South, East, West, Central and North, each with its own introduction. This is followed by a page per country, containing a delightful mix of friendly, informative text and colourful illustrations.
