Kwesi and Nana Ruby learn to swim

Commeh, Kobina2025
Books, Manuscripts
Kwesi doesn’t know how to swim . . . and discovers his grandmother doesn’t, either! Nana Ruby tells Kwesi about the history of segregation that kept her out of pools, but also about the strength of Mami Wata, the sea creature of West African legend. Newly inspired, Kwesi and Nana Ruby make a deal to conquer their fear of the water. Endmatter includes cultural notes from West Africa.
