I'd recommend 'Weep Not, Child'. It's not too complex and can help new readers get into African fiction by showing the historical and social context of Kenya. Also, 'So Long a Letter' is a good choice as it focuses on the personal experiences of a woman, which is relatable and gives insights into Senegalese society.

A good beginner - friendly book is 'Half of a Yellow Sun'. It has a captivating plot about the Biafran War. The writing is clear and it helps readers understand the political and social upheavals in Nigeria. 'The Famished Road' can also be a good pick. It has a unique blend of magic and reality that can draw in new readers interested in African storytelling.
