Nii Kwei's Day by Catherine Mcnamara

Nii Kwei gets up at six o'clock every morning. He helps his sisters and brother tidy up the compound, then he eats a breakfast of coco (corn porridge), bread, fried eggs and a chocolate drink. At 7.30 he goes to school in a taxi. Later, on his way home, he goes to Abraham's material store with his mother. He ends the day playing football with his cousins, back at the compound. This book is part of a series of photographic information books concentrating on the daily lives and experiences of children in countries around the world. The other countries featured in the series are China, Russia, India, Brazil, Vietnam, Lapland, Egypt, South Africa and Peru.
