one-hen.jpgOne Hen is a book about microfinance that is based on true events. It follows the story of two African boys: Kojo, who receives a small loan to buy a hen, and Kwabena Darko, who today is one of the largest poultry farmers in West Africa. The book has gotten rave reviews, but what I like the best is that there is a website that accompanies the book.  The website offers an interactive way for children to learn about microfinance through various games, like quizzes, mazes and memory tests.  Additionally, the website shares stories about microfinance and even encourages children to get involved.
