The BookLong One

Ghana and Children and Learning and Pedagogy and Reading and Culture and Other Things.

I have hopes for the people of Ghana that start with educating our children, in and out of the classroom.

Booklong: adj. (Ghanaian colloquialism; often derogatory)

Too preoccupied with literary or academic pursuits. Usually associated with being too-known (a know it all).

“is this booklong girl trying to tell us that ‘I could care less’ doesn’t mean what we think it does?”

Yes. Yes I am. Welcome. I’m quite nice.
