Board Member and children’s book author Elizabeth Spor Taylor filled the gap in book writing by leading a hands-on workshops in Addis Ababa in April prior to Ethiopia Reads’ 4th Children Reading Summit. Elizabeth held a children’s workshop at the famous Abrehot Library entitled The Twins Babu and Buba Writing Project. About 50-60 enthusiastic primary school children accompanied by their parents actively participated and engaged in the workshop to create a third book in a series following up on a book called Mamas and a second one called Papas. The young authors wrote the content as well as illustrated their books using their imagination.
