Little Lagoon Press Puts Ghanaian Childhood on the Shelf
A Ghanaian-Canadian children’s publishing imprint developing heritage picture books, bilingual Ewe-English and Twi-English titles, decodable readers, and activity books.
Field notes
The imprint is building a children’s list around Ghanaian and diaspora experience, with separate formats for heritage storytelling, early bilingual vocabulary, phonics practice, and creative activity. Named projects include The Backward Walk, based on the Anlo-Ewe journey from Notsie, and Adinkra Colors & Meanings, which introduces 18 symbols. The site also describes classroom-set and rights pathways, but the books themselves are presented as forthcoming or still in development rather than available for purchase.
