 Hannah’s Two Homes is a work of fiction geared to a pre-K to second grade level. It is a picture book that can be read to a child or, due to its simple sentence structure and vocabulary, might be read by the child who is at a beginning independent reading level. The story represents the thoughts of five-year- old Hannah, who splits her life between her Mom’s and Dad’s residences and her two sets of half brothers and half sisters. In the book, Hannah is sharing what she might be thinking if her emotions were “given a voice.” It can be the springboard from which the reader—parent, grandparent, or teacher—can begin a discussion and show their compassion for the child’s unique situation while gaining some valuable insights into their child’s perspective. It is a story of hope, coping, optimism, and ultimately, the healing power of love.

Siesie wo ho sie: Akan (Asante-Twi) elementary vocabulary is a revised edition of the author’s Tie ma mense wo: Basic vocabulary for Asante-Twi learners, which is currently out of print. Its main goal is to provide beginners of Akan (Asante-Twi) with the basic words and expressions that they are required to master by the end of the course. As the new title clearly suggests, the text is here to help users plan their language learning trip. The provision of exhaustive meanings and use of individual entries is practically beyond the scope of the compilation, but some vital points of explanation have been carefully added to facilitate comprehension. Also, some useful items such as parts of the human body, cardinal numbers, and days of the week, which are usually taught in formal lessons, have not been included in the present word list.

If you are familiar with the story of The Turtle Who Learned a Good Lesson you might recall that Lumpy, the toad, ran off to save Toby, the box turtle, from the scheme of a hungry vulture before Grandpa Salamander had finished telling Lumpy something that he had remembered about vultures. You might also recall that the box turtle’s formal name was Tobias, but Lumpy had nicknamed him “Toby” because it was easier for the toad to pronounce. After Toby had made friends with Lumpy and their adventures together, the easier nickname seemed to agree with the easier life Toby had achieved by regarding his turtle shell as a benefit, rather than a burden. Part of the lesson that Toby had learned is to be careful how he thinks about himself. As time passes, you become whom you think you are and your world becomes what you think it is. He had learned that he could make his life easier or more difficult, depending on how he thinks. Consequently, Toby was a much happier box turtle when he first met Grandpa Salamander. He had learned to count his blessings and had stopped grumbling about his heavy shell as he traveled between his home near the edge of the meadow and the berry patch in the forest.
