Bookset: Pacesetters Series (50 titles)
Relive all the literary jobs of years gone by, by procuring this jumbo set of the famous, now-scarce, Pacesetters Series.
The Pacesetters Series were a collection of 130 novels written by African authors (mostly Nigerian, but there were also Ghanian, Kenyan and South African writers) for an African audience. It was 1977 when Macmillan decided to publish this low-cost paperback series – with publication mainly happening between 1979 and 1988.
They were very popular in the 1980s until the series disappeared in the 1990s. The covers were lovely and unique; a bit garish, and so 1980s with their African pop art, but there’s just something about them and how the colourful images portray what the novel is probably about. They are a testament to their time.

The Ewe People: A Study of the Ewe People in German Togo
The Ewe of Ghana, Togo and Benin have been one of the most documented ethnic groups in West Africa, given their encounters with the German, French and British colonial administrations. In 1906, Jakob Spieth, a German Bremen Missionary, published Die Ewe-Stamme. Die Ewe-Stamme is one of the most comprehensive treatises on the history, religion, economic life, traditional social structure, and, indeed, the entire spectrum of everyday life of the Ewe. Published over 100 years ago the book had limited circulation and became increasingly rare to the extent that it almost became a deified piece of work and source of classified knowledge. Additionally, Die Ewe-Stamme was published in German and old non-standard and colloquial Ewe languages. It is hoped this translation of Die Ewe-Stamme into English and contemporary Ewe might create a revival of interest amongst researchers, enhance the understanding for the traditional Ewe culture and become reading material in schools and universities.

New Currency: A Historical Novella
New Currency: A Historical Novella celebrates Akan social norms and values, particularly the “wonderful feeling of togetherness” and communal living, uniquely associated with the extended family system and invites the reader to be culturally sensitive and to worry about the Ghanaian culture degradation.
Apart from capturing the chilling, historical realities of the 1979 demonetisation, it successfully regains and celebrates the otherwise fading, but precious extended family values.
In the book, the seasoned author chronicles some aspects of the harrowing military rule of 1979, and narrates the ordeal of a woman about to lose an entire lifetime savings. Specifically, it recounts the widespread commotion and hardships associated with the introduction of a new monetary currency in Ghana from March 13–26, 1979.
The historical novella, set in Sunyani, the Brong-Ahafo regional capital in the same year, captures the widespread public despondency and turbulence associated with the exercise.
The book provides some insight into the period of the country’s history for adults who lived through the turbulence of 1979 as a necessary reminder; and to the present-day youth some awareness of the happenings then.
The thrilling lime green-looking book with yellow and white title inscription on the cover, and thinly opaque adinkra symbols – Mpatapo (knot of reconciliation) and Sesa wo suban (change or transform your life), reflects the theme of the book published by Smartline Publishers.

Icon Series: Numeracy for Kindergarten 2
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 2 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.

All About Ama (Hardcover)
Age Range: 2 – 5 years
Read All About Ama as she points to and names different parts of her body.
Illustrated with colour photos, this short, simple concept book, though developed by Kathy Knowles for an African readership, should also have a North American market as nothing in the photos, including the background, situates the book geographically. The concept with which the book deals is that of the body’s principal parts, including the number of each. The book’s narrator, Ama, who is a very cute little girl, begins at her head and simply works her way down to her two feet, before pointing out, almost as an afterthought, “I have LOTS of hair.”
All About Ama, with its tight, brief text, is a fine book for parents to use with their youngsters as they learn the names of body parts. Just 18 cm high by 16 cm wide, the book is also the perfect size for young hands to hold.
An excellent home purchase for toddlers, All About Ama deserves a place in all libraries serving preschoolers.
