If you could build anything or do anything, what would it be? Unfortunately, our lack of resources blocks our imagination from reaching out to grab our dreams. Don't you wish you could fly around in that plane you drew in class? How about walking with the dinosaurs that fill your sketchbook? Emmanuel's Rollercoaster opens the door of possibility as Emmanuel's wacky sister, Stephanie, takes it upon herself to do the unthinkable. Build a rollercoaster for her brother. Could you imagine?! An amusement park contraption in your house. This book plays with absurdity and wonder and gives the reader a pathway to escape the mundane. The author, Stephanie Okoli, a current student at the University of British Columbia (one of the best universities in Canada and the world), gifts us her first book. This Black-Canadian gem adorns the "proudly Black-Canadian" logo-the first of its kind. It's a banner to let the world know the pride that oozes out of Canada's Black community. By reading this book, you join our tribe.
