"Allow me to introduce myself." But he needed no introduction.
"Anansi the spider!" said Anansi the boy. "The tales were true!"
"Traditional tales are always true," the spider answered, laughing.
"Nothing lasts so long as truth, nor travels quite so far." Now in
paperback! Award-winning author of Ghana Must Go, Taiye Selasi,
reimagines the story of Anansi, the much-loved trickster, for a new
generation. Kweku has grown up hearing stories about the
mischievous spider Anansi. He is given the nickname Anansi by his
father because of his similarly cheeky ways. On a holiday to visit
his beloved Grandma in Ghana, Anansi the spider and Anansi the boy
meet, and discover a magical pot that can be filled with whatever
they want. Anansi fills it again and again with his favourite
red-red stew, and eats so much that he feels sick. Will he learn to
share this wonderful gift? This charming retelling of a West
African story teaches readers about the dangers of greed, and the
importance of being kind. Tinuke Fagborun's colourful illustrations
bring the magic and wonder of the tale to life. When you've
finished sharing the story, you can also find out more about the
origins of Anansi folktales. This beautiful storybook is one that
children will treasure forever.
