4.0 out of 5 stars
an authentic Cameroonian tale, well told and illustrated,
By A Customer
This review is from: The King and the Tortoise (Hardcover)
This is a nicely illustrated and well-written retelling of a Cameroonian folktale. Young children will enjoy it and learn a little of Cameroon storytelling in the process. It is a nice window on the whole genre of west African stories about Tortoise, the eternal trickster. The ending may seem a little unusual to Americans and Europeans, but that is part of its charm and educational value. Highly recommended to anyone who wants their children to appreciate the spirit of west African stories.

I received this order in a timely manner, and it was in great shape for a used book. This book will be use in a kindergarten room when we are studying Africa.
