Ikhatalogu Yethu – Puku’s catalogue of 100 recommended isiXhosa books is now listed on our website

The Puku catalogue of 100 recommended Foundation Phase  isiXhosa books has been placed on our website under Latest/Catalogues. These were  selected and are currently being reviewed by Puku’s specialist reviewers. All of the books with their details have been uploaded to the Puku website. 

These recommended books were curated by our specialist reviewing team, from books listed on the Biblionef’s catalogue collection of over 240 isiXhosa books.  The book donation organisation, Biblionef, has curated extensive collections of children’s books in all South African languages.  You will also find links to these on our website. The collections reflect Biblionef’s commitment to culturally and linguistically appropriate books that foster a lifelong love of reading. These books are still in the process of being  reviewed by Puku’s reviewers and each review is added to the website as it is sent to us.

Here is Puku’s Ikhatalogu Yethu
