Summer Reading Program: Babatunde Speaks

From the shores of the Motherland comes Babatunde the Griot! In Yoruba, Babatunde translates to “The father has returned.” Inspired by the ancient practices of the Griot [Storyteller], Babatunde creatively crafts amazing stories centered around the main character, a little boy named Kweku and his illustrious journeys throughout the continent.

Using his vivid imagination, assistance from the audience, and rhythmic accompaniment from his magnificent djembes, Babatunde masterfully weaves stories laden with strong moral values, keen principles, adventure and fun!
