Kofi and His Magic


Kofi is a seven year old boy living in Bonwire, Ghana. Maya Angelou again demonstrates her narrative mastery by touring the country of Ghana through the eyes of a young boy. Kofi leads readers as far north as Bolgatanga and as far south as the coast. Phographer Maragaret Courtney-Clarke's vivid photojournalism envelopes the reader in a world of color, motion, culture, and history. Angelou subtly communicates diversity and life in the first African nation to gain independence. Readers will come away with a well-rounded introduction to Ghana's beautiful land and people.
