Description
West African traditions and folklore delight in tales of animals and tricksters. From Nigeria to Benin, from the cunning spider Anansi to the equally crafty Tortoise, animals teach humans to farm, to love, to survive and thrive, and offer inspiration for moral purpose. This collection gathers these alongside tales of origin, life, death and folly.
