Award-winning author, attorney, and educator Tricia Elam Walker presents a virtual reading of her first children's book, "Nana Akua Goes to School." In this moving story that celebrates cultural diversity, a shy girl brings her West African grandmother–whose face bears traditional tribal markings–to meet her classmates. This is a perfect read for back to school–no matter what that looks like!
“Here is a story that is both highly specific in the culture represented and universal in its expressions of emotion and heritage.” -The Horn Book
