The Day Jumoke Found His Name

Once, there lived a boy with no name. Join him on a very special day as he and his dear sister go on an adventure to discover his name, and receive priceless life lessons along the way. This is the unillustrated story of an 8-year-old boy, living in quite a magical world, inside of a single, crystal-clear raindrop that fell 2,000 years ago onto the palm of a 3,000-year-old leaf, in the tree-top of an ancient tree, growing in an ancient land on a planet we call Earth, inside of a wide, wide universe.
