A is for Adire! Yoruba Cultural Dictionary

I’ve purchased several English-Yoruba books, and this one is by far the best. It has high accuracy and is free of grammatical errors. Although it was purchased for a child, I would recommend this book to anyone interested in learning Yoruba. It’s a great place to start.

This is an awesome help for me to learn more Yoruba. My wife took to it and immediately helped me learn the pronunciation of the words. I will recommend this book to my friends and family.

This is a great book for children (and adults). The pictures are great, and the tone marks are clear. We look forward to more Yoruba books from AyoBooks!
