Children's Stories From Africa

Universal truths are delightfully shared by storyteller Nandi Nyembe through African fables in this wonderful, new four-volume series. Featuring Sesame Street-style songs, telling (in both senses) tales about greed and gossip, and the adorable dancing Mahlatsi Preschoolers dressed in traditional African garb (looking fresh out of a Busby Berkeley musical--with overhead camera shots and all!), this series is a real prize for both school and public libraries. Highly recommended. Aud: K, E, I, P. (N. Plympton)
