Oh! that's title.
I borrowed it from someone about 12/13 years ago. I will check if the person still has it.

BTW, publishers should make those Yoruba classics to be available like their English counterparts.

All these books should be digitized before they are lost forever.

No be my fault o. My aunty introduced me books like Cinderella, jack and the beanstalk, puss in boot too early. My father followed with his collection of James Hadley Chase and Louis L'Amour. Haven't overcome the urge to keep reading till now.

I just downloaded that image you made. The note with my name on it alongside a classic novel, in a photo made by a complete stranger produces a picture that deserves a place in any gallery. If you could complete this by giving me those books then I'll be indebted to you for life. Thanks for your efforts
God bless Nairaland
