Описание: This exciting collection of traditional African folk tales introduces you to a host of interesting people and unusual animals. Eighteen authentic fables, recorded as they were told by tribal members of Nigerian and other cultures, range from the imaginative «Story of a Farmer and Four Hyenas» to an entertaining account of «The Man with Seven Dogs.»In «The Magic Crocodile,» you'll meet a reptile with very strange powers, while «The Boy in the Drum» teaches a valuable lesson in the importance of obeying one's parents. In «The Hare and the Crownbird,» a fine, feathered friend is rewarded for its acts of kindness. You'll also learn why a ram has a large head and a tortoise a small one in «The Greedy but Cunning Tortoise»; and in «A She-Goat and Her Children,» you'll discover how a clever animal managed to provide food for her children.Set in large, easy-to-read type and enhanced with Yuko Green's 19 lively illustrations, this collection of time-honored folk tales will delight readers of all ages.
