The main purpose of this book is to keep the Dinka (Jiëëŋ) old tradition of storytelling alive among the Dinka people who have migrated to different parts of the world and whose children are at greater risk of losing the Dinka's language and culture. Oral storytelling in Dinka, like in other traditions facilitates the passing down of culture, knowledge, customs, and moral values from one generation to another. "Ɣɔn në roor de cuɔl Akl" was written for this purpose. The serious barrier for your children, not learning your language and culture is your negligence as a parent. If you value your language and culture, "Ɣɔn në roor de cuɔl akl" might help your children salvage what they could. As Garvey Marcus stated, "A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots". If you neglect your language and culture now, your children will be like a tree without roots as emphasized by Marcus.
