Percy Jackson Raised By Monsters

Raising Whole

Raising Whole is a soul-stirring guide to parenting rooted in the deep wisdom of African traditions, especially the Igbo culture, and laced with the tenderness of personal experience. In a world where children are often taught how to succeed but not how to feel safe, loved, and understood, this book is a clarion call to parents, guardians, and caregivers to return to the heart of raising emotionally grounded, confident, and whole children. Through powerful storytelling, African proverbs, and practical insights, Raising Whole explores the essential roles parents play in nurturing trust, love, emotional intelligence, and character in their children. Drawing richly from the author’s own journey, raised by his grandmother in an African village, the book weaves ancestral wisdom with modern parenting truths to help readers reconnect with what truly matters in raising the next generation. Each chapter offers tools for building deeper parent-child relationships, healing generational gaps, and creating homes where children grow not just academically or materially, but emotionally and spiritually. From the power of presence and affirming words to the beauty of boundaries and shared values, Raising Whole teaches that wholeness begins at home. This book is not a set of rules, it is an embrace. A warm reminder that "nwa bu nwa ora" (a child belongs to everyone), and in raising children with intentional love, we also raise families, communities, and nations. Whether you're a new parent, a teacher, a grandparent, or someone seeking to heal your own inner child, Raising Whole will move you, equip you, and remind you of the sacred call to raise children with heart and soul

STREETS RAISED ME

“Warri, I be real Warri pikin — na we go later run every street" The year is 2000 in Warri, Nigeria. Eleven-year-old Tony Black is suffocating under the weight of his family's distant privilege—a world of stern fathers, preoccupied mothers, and dismissive siblings. But the thick, humid air of Warri carries a dangerous, hidden truth, a reality his cousin, Kene, is about to expose. Kene, unlike Tony's family, is street-smart and unburdened by their rigid expectations. He promises to show Tony "how things really work around here." Tony is pulled into a clandestine world, far from his family's watchful eyes. Kene leads him to a dimly lit compound, a discreet hive of activity bustling with young men barely older than himself. Here, hushed whispers speak of stolen land and desperate self-preservation in a city that seemingly ignores them. Kene, a clear leader within this confraternity, unveils a map of Warri, transforming the familiar city into a battleground of marked territories and shifting alliances. Tony witnesses their raw anger, their fierce loyalty, and the injustices that fuel their desperate fight for survival—a sense of belonging his own detached family has never offered. The night shatters Tony's comfortable world. His opulent house, once a sanctuary, now feels like a hollow stage set, and his family, oblivious to his harrowing journey, seems alien. Alone in his room, the trappings of his former life feel meaningless. Kene's words echo in his mind: "This is our world, Tony. It's not always pretty, but it's real. And it's where we belong." Tony finds himself caught between two starkly different lives, embracing a dangerous double life: good at home, meticulously maintaining appearances, but undeniably drawn to the power and camaraderie of the streets. He knows one terrifying truth: he can never go back. The streets of Warri have claimed a piece of him, and he finds he loves that part more than any other. They will never let him go.
