So Many Ways to Be: In English and Amharic

So Many Ways to Be: In English and Amharic

5/5 ( ratings)

Ethiopia has more than 80 different ethnic groups, each speaking its own language and with its own customs and traditions and ways of living. Some Ethiopians have always traveled from one region to another—merchants and soldiers and others—and have gotten the chance to experience different climates and terrain, from massive highlands to some of the lowest spots on Earth. In recent decades, more and more Ethiopians travel for tourism to see some of the variety of people and places in their beautiful country including Lake Tana, the Omo Valley, and national parks with some unique indigenous animals like the gelada baboon and Ethiopian wolf. “So Many Ways to Be”, written by talented Ready Set Go books author Jane Kurtz, provides a colorful display of the many different things to see and ways to be. Illustrations provided by the creative students and instructors from Clark College Economic and Community Development class in Vancouver, WA. Ready Set Go Books, an Open Hearts Big Dreams Project, is focused on increasing the literacy rate in Ethiopia through giving readers books with stories in their heart languages, full of colorful illustrations with Ethiopian settings and details. Profits from books sales will be used to create, print, and distribute more Ready Set Go Books to kids in Ethiopia, Africa’s second most populous country. Ethiopia’s population is 44% children, ages 0-14 . Only 5.5% of children attend pre-school or kindergarten, and the adult literacy rate is 49%. Our books are based on wise Ethiopian sayings that often rhyme in Amharic. If an adult says the first half, many children can chant the second half. Sometimes the meaning of these sayings is clear. Sometimes it has to be puzzled out and argued over. But sayings and idioms and proverbs help people express truths and beliefs in unusual ways. Open Hearts Big Dreams Fund is a 501 not for profit organization that believes the chance to dream big dreams should not depend on where in the world you are born. Our focus is to support nonprofit organizations and their programs that provide literacy, K-12 education, and leadership as well as that support the parents and communities where the kids live, in Ethiopia.
