Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance Hardcover
₦7,000In this instant New York Times bestseller, pioneering psychologist Angela Duckworth shows anyone striving to succeed—be it parents, students, educators, athletes, or business people—that the secret to outstanding achievement is not talent but a special blend of passion and persistence she calls “grit.”
Drawing on her own powerful story as the daughter of a scientist who frequently noted her lack of “genius,” Duckworth, now a celebrated researcher and professor, describes her early eye-opening stints in teaching, business consulting, and neuroscience, which led to the hypothesis that what really drives success is not “genius” but a unique combination of passion and long-term perseverance.

Sons and Lovers By D.H Lawrence
₦4,000By D.H Lawrence
First published in 1913, this provocative semi-autobiographical novel reflects the struggles of Paul Morel, an artist who cannot reciprocate love for other women while under the influence of his stifling mother. Unconsciously taught to despise his father and eschew other women, Paul comes even further under his mother’s psychological grasp after the death of his older brother. When he eventually does fall in love, the results of confused affection and desire are painful for all concerned. While “Sons and Lovers” scandalized its original English readers for its oedipal implications and social criticism, it remains a powerful story of terrifying inner and outer conflict and intense sensuality.

Snatched By Asmaa Hussein

Omar has taken something that doesn’t belong to him! His mistake is following him, even into his dreams. How will he make amends? Snatched is a colourful and rich story about telling the truth, and erasing bad deeds by doing good deeds!
This story is based on the following hadith:
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “Be conscious of Allah wherever you are. Follow the bad deed with a good one to erase it, and engage others with beautiful character.”
We love the idea of having Islamic children’s books emphasize the ability to make amends whenever they make mistakes! When kids know that good deeds will always erase bad ones, they can make sure to implement that instead of just feeling bad or guilty about a mistake.
The beautiful and bright illustrations will catch your kids’ attention, and they’ll want to read this story again and again!
