Abstract
There is a desperate shortage of relevant material written in indigenous languages for children from birth to 9 years throughout Africa. This publication has been written to encourage writers, publishers and book selectors to write, publish and select more locally-produced material of quality for children in Africa. Although this publication is focused on the South African ECD book industry as an example of what is available and should be available, the lessons in best practice that can be extracted from this text transcend language and context and are relevant to the rest of Africa.
