Africa Kids

In this audiobook, you will travel through the vast continent of Africa. Journey back to ancient times, and discover one of the earliest and most famous civilizations, ancient Egypt. We will then travel through the Middle Ages, discovering some of the largest empires in Africa to ever exist. Discover how Africa has shaped the world as we know it and how the transatlantic slave trade led to the largest, long-distance, forced migration of people in history.

The history of Africa—the way it is taught in our US schools—focuses on the timeline of the material culture of great African civilizations and empires of the past, on population migrations, and colonization by the Europeans. The historical figures of the African past appear mostly in the context of their interactions with the Europeans—trading with them, or resisting colonization.
