My Barefoot Story

How I got here

I joined Barefoot Books as a stallholder in June 07. I am astonished (and very pleased) at how well it has gone since then. I have completely fallen in love with the books and gifts. I've tried quite a few network marketing companies over the years but this company is something else. The support network is fantastic, like one big Barefoot family! Now, four years on, I still love this business, our titles have changed from Stallholders to "Ambassadors". I have just been to the UK Ambassador conference in Oxford and I'm gearing up for the Autumn sales challenge 2011. Will keep you informed......

Feeling Good

success! 2007-2008 (my very first year)

I was the top Sponsor for the month of August. Have received both of my prizes, a signed copy of One City Two Brothers, and a signed copy of Motherbridge of Love. They are both so beautiful and something for me to keep forever.

And..I am the top newcomer for the Summer Challenge (July, August and September). Have now received a copy of all the new titles for the Autumn. I love this job!

Now I've won a trip to the South of France in Spring 2008. I had the top personal sales and I was the top selling newcomer in the UK for the Oct-Dec season.

And..I've won all the new titles for Spring as top sponsor (Jan-Mar) What an amazing year this has been!

Review

Catch That Goat

Ayoka has been left in charge of the family goat, but within minutes it has vanished! As Ayoka searches the streets of town, she sees how much trouble a runaway goat can cause among the market stalls. One thing after another disappears, and when Ayoka finally catches up with the goat, she finds more than she had bargained for.

Polly Alakija's bright, detailed illustrations perfectly capture the vibrant bustle of a Nigerian street market. Children will enjoy counting the missing items as they help Ayoka find the goat on each page. Boisterously funny and authentic, Catch that Goat! is a unique find! £5.99
