Okenandu is a character that guides children in learning the Igbo language of West Africa. She is a girl who happened to drop through a portal from the past and is here to teach children her language and traditions so she can feel at home again. In this book, Okenandu goes through the wild (agụ) and names some animals and describes their character in Igbo. The book is written in nsibidi, which is writing that originated in West Africa, and is annotated with the English alphabet. This Igbo Nsibidi children's book provides a fun opportunity for both children, parents, and guardians to learn Igbo as well as some ancient African symbols and characters
