Ethnikids will be hosting a book reading at Eldorado Park Library, Gauteng, South Africa. Authors, Tracy-Lee Easthorpe and Bandile Sikwane will be reading their books 'Obnoxious Naledi and the Poppysmic Fairy' and 'Malome Lerata goes to the Library' to children in this community. These books feature characters of colour that they can identify with and have stories that they can relate to. This will not only encourage love for reading but will also promote self-love and love for South African languages, as one of the books has been written in Setswana.
