Publisher Description
Gather around the story circle. Volume 1 opens the collection with 25 traditional tales from the Gold Coast (present-day Ghana) and its neighbours: Anansi the spider, who wins wisdom for the human race, tricks gods and kings, and gets the better of Thunder; tales of why the lizard nods his head, why spiders live in the corners of ceilings, and how the tortoise got its shell; and stories of princes, hunters and gods. Includes a new introduction and listening notes that set the stories in their historical context, and illustrations throughout. This illustrated audio edition (EPUB with synchronized narration) was narrated with a synthesized (digital) voice. For teen, family and adult readers.
