The children of Asempa Town know the roads are broken \u2014 but no one has fixed them\u2026 until now. Yaw, Abena, Kojo, Nana and Selina are tired of tripping over potholes, splashing in muddy
\npuddles and watching their parents struggle on uneven streets. They decide it’s time to act \u2014 but can a group of children really fix a whole road? With courage, teamwork and creativity, they
\nrally neighbours, convince adults to help and face unexpected challenges like sudden storms and sceptical villagers. Along the way, they discover that communities grow stronger when
\neveryone works together. The Broken Road of Asempa Town is a heart-warming story about friendship, responsibility and collective action. Perfect for ages 9\u201312, it inspires young readers to notice problems, think creatively and take action in their communities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
