What started as an intention to write children’s books during the Covid lockdown evolved into Tani Series as a publishing company.
Our Founder @folukeoo tells you the origin story of @taniseries
Hey new followers, get to know us. We’re Tani Series, publishers of the ‘I Am A Nigerian In…’ series. The journey to our 1st set of books started while @folukeoo was at Harvard Business School. No, we’re not just namedropping Harvard although she’ll probably cringe at us mentioning it. While at HBS, she wrote about Nigerian business leader, Chief Timothy Adeola Odutola, and her professors loved it so much they turned it into a HBS case study. Which is kind of a big deal. Anyway, that made her want to tell more Nigerian stories and, this desire and her love for inspiring kids, birthed these series on notable Nigerians.
With vivid stories and beautiful illustrations, each I Am A Nigerian In... book features stories of courage and creativity, spotlighting 15 notable Nigerians in their field. Beyond opening up a world of dreamers, our books contain additional information about places, sectors, and many more things Nigerian that’ll expand your child’s imagination (and yours too)!

POV: You run into a living legend whose story you told in one of your children’s books 😀 Photos from when @folukeoo , author of #IAmANigerianInLiteraryArts met Nigerian Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka. He loved our Literary Arts book (and not just because he’s featured 🤣) and signed on the page featuring his profile.
What’s your favourite Soyinka work?
