This little boy Chidera Ikeoha from Enugu State wrote this book and has been wondering from motor pack to motor pack in Enugu trying to sell it. He wrote this book while he was in primary 6 and currently he is in JSS2. We can’t let this star be discouraged!

Reading is all fun really but what happens after it equally matters. @ReadThinkInvest encourages readers to act afterwards. In 2025, readers need to let the #Books they read be their guide for the year. Cc @3Bookthirsty
Reading is all fun and games until you finish a book and don't know what to do with your life.
Access is a big problem. And this made/make readers source for soft copies from the backyard. If the writer can't sell enough, he wouldn't eat enough to gain enough energy to write another book. I love life; I want to enjoy it. Our work needs to be sold, you know, so we can live
to be published) and I can’t assure people my little author’s copy will be sufficient for my family and friends. This goes to other authors and books too. Access is extremely important yet absent. 😢
and book distributors from going into contract with the foreign ones to either distribute the books locally or buy rights to producing them here in Africa, Nigeria. I know for sure a lot of people have been asking for @bakronline’s book, mine too (even though it is yet…
In the recent Abuja International Poetry Festival, I had thought this would be given answers too as I personally curated a panel with aim to address this issue but I can’t say there was a solution. The question I do ask is, is there anything holding our local publishers…
The question of access - equitable and fair access - to #books and other knowledge resources can only be effectively addressed if everyone support the libraries, esp, public libraries. BookStores/BookShops need to innovate around their products offerings too. Cc @3Bookthirsty
These are the issues. A lot of people want to read and are willing to buy, but most of these books are not accessible.
A number of Libraries, especially, public libraries are already rising to the occasion. More needs to be done, however. Our Bookstores/BookShops need to find more creative ways of putting books in the hands of potential readers. #Books are becoming expensive Cc @3Bookthirsty
I would love to see books made accessible to people & book lovers in 2025. This is a huge problem in our continent. Masobe are doing great. But we need more, especially for poetry and drama. Amazon would have solved this problem, but... how do we make books accessible in 2025?
