Tales from Africa (3-6 years)
In Africa, certain myth circles are widespread where three figures are the protagonists: the male spider Anansi, the male tortoise Torti and the hare Leuk. All three represent cunning and cunning, sometimes acting as positive and sometimes negative role models. The four African fables in this book feature Torti, the male tortoise. They come from a distant tradition, but in them we too can discern universal sensibilities like those of Aesop's fables. All this with the freshness and vitality of authentic children's fairy tales.
