The Daughters of Nandi
As she took her dying breath, Nandi Mhlongo, mother of Shaka kaSenzangakhona, cursed the house of Zulu and her family, the Mhlongos, for the disrespect she endured at their hands. In the ancestral realm, Nandi worries that her malediction may have been rash and too dangerous for the descendants of the two houses. The curse can be undone but it will need a human medium to convey the message to the progeny.
Through three historical periods, three women who are extraordinary in their different ways will seek to get restitution for Nani. Gentle Keeya, a Motswana woman of the House of Moagi who marries one of Nandi’s descendants as the English, the Boers and the Zulu go to the war in the 19th century; Uju, a spirited married woman who carves a space for herself in history during the forced removals of Sophiatown in the 20th century; and in the 21st century Amangwe, who reluctantly joins her fellow students as they speak up against a meaningless freedom during the #FeesMustFall protests.
Will any of these three women manage to ensure Nandi Mhlongo is appeased and if not, what shall be the consequences to the Houses of Mhlongo and Zulu and to the three Daughters of Nandi themselves?
An engaging debut which seamlessly weaves fact, fiction and spiritualities while subverting the way the reader perceives history.

Icon Series: Numeracy for Kindergarten 1
Age Range: 3 – 5 years
Icon Numeracy is a series of three books, namely:
- Numeracy for Nursery (Ages 3 and 4)
- Numeracy for KG 1
- Numeracy for KG 2
Each of the books was carefully prepared to cater for the need of learners at the foundation level. The books have been well prepared to meet the Standards-based Curriculum by the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NaCCA) in 2019. Young learners were particularly paid attention to, so they have the full benefits of these books, and prepare them adequately into the world of mathematics.
The Numeracy for KG 1 was carefully extracted from the KG Curriculum to help young learners have the requisite understanding of the basic concepts, and to enable them to move to the upper classes with ease. Besides, the language has been kept brief in both the rubrics, headings and explanation of concepts to enable the young learners to read after a little guide by teacher. The books have been divided into 7 strands, namely:
- Number: Counting, Representation and Cardinality
- Number Operations: Addition and Subtraction
- Patterns and Relationships
- Geometry
- Measurement
- Motion or Position
- Handling Data
Each of the Strands (Topics) has been expanded with enough exercises to help the learner grasp the concepts. The books are activity-based and learners have the opportunity to express themselves as they learn. Group work has also been given to enable learners work in groups while learning about teamwork and communication, and collaboration.
What makes the series easy to use, fun and exciting is the design of the book with some beautiful toys that excite the learners at this level. The books breathe enough to keep learners very active while using them. By the time learners are through with the series, they will be well-equipped with the core competencies as explained in this new standards-based curriculum.
Learners, teachers and parents will find the series very interesting to use.

Saro
On a visit to the coast of Marina, Lagos, Siwoolu and his young family are lured by a traitor to a grand merchant ship where they are captured by slaveholders masquerading as traders. On the way to the new world, they are rescued by abolitionists on a British naval ship and sent to Freetown, a haven for freed slaves.
They settle in their new home, grow their family, and become successful merchants, trading goods between Freetown and Eko. Dotunu, Siwoolu’s wife, falls in love with another man and is caught in a love triangle. But their lives are upended again when they hear that the kingdom has selected the traitor as king. Siwoolu, content with his new life, yet fearful of a curse that lurks in the shadows, refuses to return, but Dotunu is determined to keep the traitor from the throne. She turns to their son, Oșolu, who is running from his own demons, to seize the throne that is rightfully theirs.
Saro is a multigenerational tale of betrayal and restitution, love and war, inspired by true events that will take the reader from the rocky terrain of Abeokuta and the burgeoning city of Lagos to the lion mountains of Freetown and Hastings of Sierra Leone from the 1830s to the 1850s.

Book 5 places emphasis on the importance of storing energy. Energy is not always available in the form that people can readily use. Solar energy must be stored so that it can be utilised even when the sun is not shining. The book challenges readers on how to ensure that hydropower is available even during the dry seasons. Modern, as well as traditional methods of storing renewable energy are presented.
The author of the book, Renewable Energy: Storage, Joram Augustine Pyuza Matulu, is a senior researcher at the Tanzania Education Institute.
