From the story of Anansi and Hate-to-be-contradicted , a tale from Ghana of a man who hates it when people disagree with him, to the spine-tingling story Down to Deadtown from Nigeria, Stories from West Africa takes the reader on a journey into the heartland of the country, capturing the imagination and the essence of traditional stories, each of which is distinctively illustrated by Tim Clarey. A rich, imaginative and colourful book that children and adults alike will cherish.
This is Book 30 in the Multicultural Stories Series. See all Multicultural Stories books here.
