I was working as a substitute at the time, and would keep this with me so there was something to read to the children after their seat work was finished. In general, reading stories from other cultures is rewarding. This book is an awesome read aloud book. One class applauded enthusiastically||
"The seventeen stories, mostly gathered in the Ashanti country, are fresh to collections and are told with humor and originality." --The Horn Book||"An unusually fine collection of folk tales told simply, directly, and with beauty." --Library Jo
The stories of West Africa are about men and animals, about kings, warriors, and hunters. They tell about clever people and stupid people, about good ones and bad ones, about how things and animals got to be how they are. Some stories in this book will make you think. Some will make you laugh. All of them are retold with folk spirit full of generosity and vitality.
