"The stories of West Africa are about men and animals, about kings, warriors, and hunters. They tell about clever people and stupid people, about good ones and bad ones, about how things and animals got to be how they are. Sometimes they are just tall tales. There are stories about Frog, Rabbit, Turtle, Guinea Fowl, and all the other animals that West Africans know. Some of the stories make you think. Some make you laugh.
Here are some of the stories of the people of the forests, the seacoast, the hills, and the plains.
The people of West Africa give them to you."

The poems cover a wide variety of subjects which encompass feelings of love, respect and friendship for their parents, teachers, companions, countrymen, etc. and also reflect the expression of interest in things or issues which children generally come across during their childhood or in the school environment. The language used throughout the book is very simple and easily understandable, keeping in mind the school-going kids. Coming directly from the hearts and minds of young children, these poems, no doubt provide a spontaneous source of delight, amusement, information, education, inspiration and general pleasure for all the readers, irrespective of age, sex, religion or nationality. So readers, enjoy reading each one of them as there is a definite message hidden in all the poems waiting to be deciphered....

From cancer to creativity, prom dates to promiscuity, and breaking hearts to breaking laws, the memoirs in this collection reveal that often the youngest writers have the most fascinating stories to tell.
