Review:

Soso is about to turn nine years old on September 9th! Before her party, Soso's family visits the park for her brother's football trial. Soso decides to explore the park and soon finds a curious leaf that looks exactly like the birthmark that she dislikes. Following the Kako leaves, Soso finds herself lost in a different land, Abe Ile. The people there speak Yoruba and tell her that she is their princess. However, Soso must regain power from the Queen who is allowing Abe Ile to die.

Soso and the Kako Leaf is an inspirational adventure set in Nigeria. Soso's adventure not only focuses on Nigerian culture and stories, but building confidence, believing in yourself, and learning traditions. I enjoyed the fast-paced and exciting story accompanied by the rich, colorful, and detailed pictures. The format of the book was different with a full spread layout with just a picture and the words to accompany the picture on the following page in a full spread. It was a little confusing to see the picture before the story describing it. A fun and immersive story for readers 5-9 years old.

This book was received for free in return for an honest review.

    Hi there! I'm Stephanie and I obviously love reading.  As, the title suggests, I read at least one hundred pages a day.  I enjoy most book genres; however, my favorites are historical fiction, fantasy, science fiction, thriller, horror and YA.  I also read a lot of non-fiction science and gardening books for my occupation.  I enjoy reviewing books and as always, any book that I receive for free is read in return for my honest review.
