    • ABOUT THIS BOOK

       

      This book is Makaylah Safiya Williams' first book, which is based on a true story.

       

      She bravely travelled to The Gambia despite having fears about lions roaming the streets. When she arrived, Makaylah discovered that television did not tell the full story; there were no lions to be found only beautiful people from the African Diaspora with amazing stories to tell.

       

      Parents agree this is a great bedtime companion for children aged 8+. Educators can use the quiz page at the back of the book as well as the poetry challenge for classroom learning activities.

       

      'My First Trip to The Gambia' is a great way to teach children more about the continent of Africa and develop their confidence, self-esteem and sense of adventure.

       

      10% of book sales will be donated to the

      Manhood Academy for Boys' rites of passage

      programme and The Womanhood Academy for Girls.

    • Thank you all who attended my book launch

      On Saturday 4th May 2019 I had my book launch at The Redmond Community Centre inManor House.

       

      Over 200 people attended, it was like an African village, people were talking, children were everywhere, I was so emotional. Special guests included

       

      On the day there will be:

      • Andrew Muhammad
      • Alim Kamara
      • Black Arts Theatre 
      • Griot Chinyere
      • Peaches Publications
      People dressed in African attire, they looked amazing. People travelled from the Midlands, Bristol and all over London.
       
      I am so lucky to be apart of a loving village.
       
      Thank you Africa X5, Love is Just a Verb, Port Royal Patties, Womanhood Academy Michelle and Rouchelle, the guests, friends and family.

      Hey, Black Girl! 2
      When Makaylah looks in the mirror, she can see many positive characteristics and, staring back at her, are role models and celebrities that she feels embody these wonderful traits. So, when Makaylah looks in the mirror and sees Courage, looking back at her is the author Maya Angelou. When she looks in the mirror and sees Dreams, Actress Letitia Wright is looking back at her. When she looks in the mirror and sees Passion, the activist Claudia Jones, is looking back at her.
