Afro-Bets First Book about Africa
A Ghanaian visitor to a classroom answers questions about his continent posed by a group of curious African American children. Mr. Amegashi's relaxed, informative conversation with the children provides a wealth of information about Africa's history, geography and cultures, stressing the diversity of this rich continent. Outstanding page designs use full-color illustrations and a combination of color and black-and-white photographs, all clearly reproduced and perfectly placed. ©1989 Cooperative Children's Book Center
