  In Nigerian villages, people are bonded together by their ogbo or age-grade, which unites girls and goys of the same age. Each ogbo contributes in its own unique way to the well-being of the village. In this book, a little girl explains the different age-grades and all they entail: their chores, their decision-making; and their fun. The author presents photographs to explore this aspect of traditional African village life. Ifeoma Onyeulu is the author of A for Africa and Emeka's Gift - An African Counting Story .
