The History of We

Author and illustrator: Nikkolas Smith

A beautifully artistic pictorial journey that takes us back to humankind's early beginnings in Africa. The book depicts everyday life in those times, and challenges faced and overcome with new skills and knowledge; as well as the exploration of new horizons, and the joy of music and dance. A celebratory acknowledgement of the role of Africa in early civilization, that will allow children of colour to feel a sense of pride, whilst providing learning opportunities for all children.
