Read. Write. Create.

Booksie is committed to nurturing lifelong confident readers through our Book Club.

Our Accra-based Literacy Centre is home to a book club where we read and discuss exciting African books and teach new and beginning readers how to read using Jolly Phonics. We also organise Storytime with authors and run Holiday Reading Camps during school breaks.
