KEUR ALPHA, SENEGAL - AUGUST 12: A child reading to her mother in their local Wolof language. The children's books in the local language was developed and printed by TOSTAN to help preserve the local languages in rural areas in Senegal. The program is part of TOSTAN's Reinforcement of Parental Practices Module, where by applying the knowledge gained during the Reinforcement of Parental Practices Module, parents and community members will give children an excellent start in their social, linguistic, and emotional growth. This healthy development will in turn lead to more children staying in and excelling in school, and improve child parent relationship. August 12, 2014 in Keur Alpha, Senegal.
