The Borosai Tales: The Mirror of FaithBy Jerome Arab and Lord Osei-Ofori
In this enchanting first installment of The Borosai Tales, part of the groundbreaking Rise of the Ancients (ROTA) franchise, readers are transported to the mystical continent of Alkebulan (the oldest recorded name for Africa, meaning 'cradle of mankind' or 'garden of Eden'), where the space between gods and mortals is thin. Through the eyes of the nomadic Borosai people, we witness a pivotal moment in history as Nete-Ruh, mother of all gods, shares the profound secret of divine existence.
When Nete-Ruh gathers the Borosai elders beneath an ancient baobab tree, she reveals a truth that will reshape their understanding of faith itself: the gods are born of belief, sustained by ritual, and shaped by the stories people tell. As strange ships appear on distant horizons bringing change to Alkebulan, the Borosai are entrusted with a sacred mission-to spread this wisdom across the six kingdoms of the continent, ensuring that the power of their beliefs can never truly be conquered.
This beautifully crafted tale weaves together themes of cultural preservation, the power of storytelling, and the enduring strength of faith. Young readers will discover that every prayer whispered, every story shared, and every tradition honoured helps keep the divine forces of their world alive. Through the Borosai's journey, children learn valuable lessons about inner strength, cultural pride, and the importance of passing down ancestral wisdom.
The Mirror of Faith is more than just a story-it's an invitation to explore the rich tapestry of African mythology and tradition. With its engaging narrative and profound messages, this book offers:
A fresh perspective on faith and belief systems Insights into the importance of cultural heritage Lessons about resilience in the face of change Tools for parents to discuss tradition and identity with their children A window into the vast richness of African storytelling
Perfect for readers aged 7-12, this book serves as both an entertaining adventure and a meaningful exploration of how beliefs shape our world. Parents and educators will find it an invaluable resource for discussing cultural identity, tradition, and the power of storytelling with young minds.
The Mirror of Faith marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter in children's literature, one that celebrates and preserves the oldest stories of humankind while making them accessible to a new generation. Join the Borosai on their sacred mission and discover why some tales are powerful enough to echo through the ages.
The Borosai Tales: The Mirror of Faith is the first installment in an exciting series that will ultimately span five books, each exploring different aspects of Alkebulan's rich mythology and tradition. As part of the larger Rise of the Ancients franchise, this book represents just the beginning of a multimedia journey into Africa's hidden histories and timeless wisdom.
