Every country in the world deals with corruption. Onyinye Ough has written an important book series that deals with this tough issue in her country, Nigeria. Each culturally relevant story provides teachable moments and valuable lessons that are appropriate for upper primary and secondary level students. Ough’s text is readable and engaging and Odeleye’s illustrations are relatable to all ages.  The author also includes a glossary and writing exercises that teach critical thinking. A hard and digital copy can be purchased online. There is an audio-book version of Emeka’s Money on Step Up’s website.

Great work Onyinye and Adeniyi!
