Rest in peace great icon.

Brighter Grammar (1-4) and English Without Tears are books I loved so much. Especially for those illustrative cartoons in Brighter Grammar, which I would say are great tools in making readers love and understand English Language better.

Did anyone remember the story of a man that went to a pharmacist to buy a medicine for his wife's headache?

Brighter Grammar. Great books that helped many to pass almighty Waec English with C6 or higher in those days. Are the books still in print? Sadly, even if they were, where are the readers?

All the while, I use to think P A Ogundipe was a man. I used the New Practical English textbook from Form 1 to SS3. Even the brighter was from back to back.

Great books.

May her intelligent spirit rest in great peace.

It was as though my mum used that book as a punishment for me when I was little.

If I talked too much, danced too much, ate too much, played too much...... She would tell me to go bring my brighter grammar or queen's primer cry

Even after reading the book, my mum would ask me to start from the first page again. cry

Then I'll start ;

Queen Primer was the real deal. grin

May her soul rest in peace. May her children and family continue to bask and thrive in her legacy.
I passed just before the introduction of her book.
Would see if I can get a copy of one of them, for memorabilia.
Nigerian does have great minds, how are we celebrating them?
Imagine not knowing of her history or her gender by most that read and excel through the knowledge gain from her books?
In another world, she will be in the Wikipedia and honored in Contemporary arts.
Wiki mentioned her under the town Esa Oke https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esa-Oke
By the way where are the notable artists on NL? To do mama's portrait as gift for the family...?

Never really knew that the face behind the name is a female figure; our assumption is inconsequential because the books, especially 'Brighter Grammar' Series, did help many a student improve their English grammar.

Adieu, mama!
