Tafadhali kaka Ngujiri, tupe orodha ya uteuzi wa wandishi wa kiswahili wa vitengo mbali mbali kama vile ,vitabu vya watoto na vijana jinsi ulivyofanya mwaka jana kabla ya tuzo ya Jomo kenyatta.
Bakari,
Natumai Kiswahili changu bado hakijaliwa na mchwa. Tuza la Wahome Mutahi lina kitengo kimoja tu na ambacho ni cha watu wazima (adult category). Haina vitengo vya watoto wala vya vijana.
