PARABLES STUDIO RELEASES NEW BOOK, '28TH, THE CROSSROADS' IN PARTNERSHIP WITH MOUNTYPE PUBLISHERS


'28th, The Crossroads' is a beautifully illustrated book inspired by Parables' acclaimed

feature-length animated film of the same name. The film, which was premiered in 2022 at the Silverbirds cinemas, vividly retold the pivotal 1948 event where three army veterans were shot at the crossroads in Accra-an incident that sparked Ghana's fight for independence.


Building on the film's success, the book offers young readers an engaging and educational experience, blending rich illustrations with historical facts. It features a glossary of key terms, though-provoking questions, and actual archival images from the 1948 riots.


The aim, according to Parables Studio Director, Cycil Abban, is to inspire and educate the next generation about Ghana's journey to independence, making it an excellent supplementary resource for students, book lovers and history enthusiasts.

'28th The Crossroads' he further disclosed, is part of Parables' ongoing commitment to preserving and sharing Ghana's rich cultural heritage with younger audiences.


In addition to the book, Parables in partnership with Mountype has published other works focused on Ghanaian folklore, including 'Tales of Kweku Ananse', volume 1 and 2. These and other locally inspired animated stories are available on 'koliko+' a mobile streaming app dedicated to made -in-Ghana contents.


The books are available in bookstores across Accra, Kumasi, Takoradi and other major cities
