Author celebrates book launch on leading booksellers

Books by local author, educator and entrepreneur Vivean Pomell have been made available through two major booksellers.

Vivean, the founder of Learn with Lolnyo, now has her two books, ‘Patina’s Poetry’ and ‘Under the Mango Tree’ listed with Waterstones and Barnes & Noble.

With a career spanning over three decades in education, including service as an Ofsted Inspector, her experiences, both professional and personal, have inspired a body of work that she describes as “deeply representational, empowering, and faith-centered”.

Vivean said: “As a child, few believed anything good would come of me, a feeling many can understand.

“Yet, I held on to a deep, God-given belief in myself. I kept speaking life and positivity over my journey, trusting that one day the seed I planted would bear fruit, and it has.”

Founded during the pandemic, ‘Learn with Lolonyo’ is an educational brand committed to delivering high-quality, culturally inclusive resources for children aged preschool to 16.

Drawing on over 30 years of experience in early years and a Master’s in Education, Vivean has built a platform that integrates academic learning with emotional development, cultural identity, and positive representation.
