For our summer reading camps in Ghana we added a stock of about 100 books in each of the three Ghana libraries targeted to 12 year old students... Some we bought in Accra, some in the U.S. and shipped. I really enjoyed Maya Angelou's Kofi and His Magic and think the kids in Bolgatanga area will really get a kick out of it.
