Resources mentioned | About the book
My First Book of Shona and Ndebele Words is a short & engaging picture book set in Zimbabwe. It features a Black Zimbabwean brother and sister who introduce the reader to Shona and Ndebele (the two main native languages in Zimbabwe) vocabulary with accompanying English translations as they experience their daily life activities. The book transports readers to Zimbabwe and allows them a glimpse into Zimbabwean family life and culture.Â
 Yeve says, “African children’s books are NOT for African children. They are for ALL children. Books are an important tool in documenting culture, history, and language." Sibanda believes that we have to normalize celebrating, embracing, and learning about other cultures to build a truly global and diverse society. As such, her brand focuses on amplifying diversity, equity, and inclusion matters.
