About

Adapted from the bestseller One Hen and inspired by a true story, this picture book about a determined boy with a plan brings the concept of microfinance to life.
Kojo's family doesn't have much. But Kojo has big dreams and one big idea. It starts with him borrowing money to buy a fluffy white hen. The hen provides his family with eggs, and extras he can sell. With the money he makes, he pays back his loan and buys more hens. As his profits grow, he's able to pay school fees and then attend college, where he learns more about raising chickens. And, in time, Kojo becomes the owner of a thriving business, helping others follow their dreams!
One big idea plus a small loan equals an uplifted community!
