Just finished reading this beautiful, balanced and compelling retelling of King Shaka's story by @StoryPressA. Can't recommend it enough. Our South African legends rival the world's.
We're excited to announce a new collab with 6 South African illustrators (including @SaaidRahbeeni) + historian Rich Conyngham! Thanks to support from @nacsouthafrica, we’re producing graphic histories of lesser-known SAfrican #humanrights legal cases. Stay tuned! #ThanksNAC

What an amazing idea! Who wants to celebrate Jolabokaflod this year?
Looking for a new holiday tradition? Iceland celebrates Jolabokaflod, or Yule Book Flood, where you exchange new books with your loved ones on Christmas Eve & everyone spends the evening reading books & drinking cocoa! Sounds like our kind of night! #triviathursday
