Perfect interactive exposure to HBCU's and higher ed in in general
I learned about this book randomly through an interview of the author posted on LinkedIn, and was so impressed by its origin story. I ended up ordering directly for a signed copy for my daughter's Christmas gift, but my own excitement got the best of me and I ended up giving it to her early. I love how interactive it is. My 6 y/o didn't have answer for all the questions yet which is great bc it's got her wheels turning. I suspect her answers will evolve the more we revisit it. 😊

Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2019
A is for Ancestors wonderfully evokes college memories at an HBCU! Young readers will be inspired to higher heights and others will be able to cherish fond memories of fellowship, scholarship, and growth.

Sharing is caring! Get your book and share a book with your local school or favorite teacher.
