A classic for me is, Brown Bear, by Bill Martin Jr and Eric Carle. I was able to read it to children in Lusaka, Zambia. They loved it as much as I did.
I’ll never forget how excited I was reading this book as a kid & how excited children still get half a world away.

The libraries being referred to are the Lubuto Libraries where she is a board member if not mistaken. It is a gesture that is changing lives in the communities. How I wish more organizations would step forward and do the same. Well done @LubutoLibrary

A big thank you to Vongai and Teach for All. Also, a big shout out to Lubuto Library Partners who, from the grass roots, is helping the vulnerable and disenfranchised to soar: xitter.cf/LubutoLibrary/status/1…

The library is supposed to be a refuge from life on the streets. A place where the children can just be children and dream and envision a better future. Libraries link the past, present and the future.

MULENGA KAPWEPWE
Zambia’s Patron of the Arts.
Mulenga Kapwepwe is almost like a walking library; a granary of African cultural idioms, expressions and a repository of Zambia’s cultural DNA. She’s been described as Zambia’s patron of the arts by CNN. It’s not an exaggeration.

Watch Zambia’s 1st consignment of COVID-19 vaccines arrive at Kenneth Kaunda International Airport in Lusaka this afternoon. UNICEF procured and delivered these as part of #COVAX, a global initiative to ensure that vaccines are available to ALL countries, no matter their income.
