Ain is also the author of our brand new book Ayo's Adventure: Across the African Diaspora from Afro to Zulu! She said about the creation of the book, "Bringing the idea for this book to life has been an adventure. I expected to teach young readers about the beauty of the African diaspora, but I didn't anticipate how much I would learn. I hope that you learn as much as I have, and that your curiosity is sparked to explore what's beyond these pages"
