Trouble: The Newest Bilingual Book from Ethiopia Reads

The Denver-Based literacy organization Ethiopia Reads recently announced the publication of a new children’s book written in English and Amharic. Trouble is a charming Ethiopian tale from award winning children’s author Jane Kurtz, who co-founded Ethiopia Reads with Yohannes Gebregeorgis. Artist Durga Bernhard donated her talents to illustrate the book.

Proceeds from sales of Trouble, and a new edition of Ethiopia Reads’ previous book Silly Mammo, directly support operations in Ethiopia to plant libraries and stock them for the next generation of readers to enjoy.

Single copies of the book are available for just $15, with $5 for shipping and handling. They also offer gift shipping on a specified date – just send your gift list along with $20 per name, and enclose a special gift note from you as part of their “Books & Bows” holiday book sale.

Get started by emailing your name and preferred method of contact (phone, fax, or email) to books@ethiopiareads.org.
