@Siviwe_G @DBE_SA @ElijahMhlanga Enkosi Minister @Siviwe_G. Let's encourage schools to use their books budget to buy books. School libraries are so important as well. We have amazing children's authors in the country and they are not being seen.

[Lorato Trok @loratoauthor]

We do literacy very well at Nal"ibali. No doubt.

[Nal'ibali @nalibaliSA]

[Lorato Trok @loratoauthor]

@sewela_langeni Same here. I want my books back but I can't remember who has it, and they are not saying anything neither. Should be a criminal offence.
