What do you call onions in Yoruba? Can your child count to five in their ancestral language?
Join Adesola and her mom on a vibrant trip to the market in this colorful Yoruba-English bilingual children's book. As they shop for fresh ingredients to make her favorite meal, young readers discover the names of foods in Yoruba with clear English translations - and practice counting along the way!
Warm, culturally rich, and genuinely fun to read aloud, this is language learning that feels like storytelling.
Children will:
- Learn Yoruba food words with clear English translations
- Practice counting in Yoruba through interactive storytelling
- Connect with Yoruba culture, family, and tradition
Perfect for:
- Diaspora families teaching Yoruba at home
- Classrooms introducing African and world languages
- Parents looking for diverse counting and food books
- Grandparents sharing their language and culture with grandchildren
- Anyone who believes a child's mother tongue is worth preserving - ages 0 to 99
This is more than a market trip. It is a moment between a child and their culture - joyful, intentional, and lasting.
Adesola lọ sí Ọjà. The language lives on.
