The first man and woman are lonely. What to do? They decide to
fashion children out of clay. As they are baking the little figures
in their fire, they're constantly interrupted by visits from the
sky-god, Nyame. As a result, some of the children are pale and
underdone, some are left in so long that they come out very dark,
and the rest are every shade between. Frane Lessac's gorgeous
gouache paintings, inspired by West African masks and pottery, and
Eric Maddern's vivid text make this one of the most compelling of
creation myths for young readers.
