Terrible Tales of Africa
Clare Hibbert
Brief Description: Though Africa is a huge continent filled with different cultures, African folktales share some characteristics. One is a love of nature, specifically animals. The other is a respect for cleverness. These two characteristics meet in the tales of Anansi the Spiderman and the Jackal. Both are tricksters who often get the best of their fellow beasts. Readers will become acquainted with these two characters' exploits as well as other African tales. Fact boxes and illustrations enhance each story.
