We have a very special book today which is called Who is the king? With sub-title 10 magical African stories. The book it's written by South African children's author Beverly Naidoo.
When she was twenty years old she moved to the United Kingdom where the British Piet Grobler beautifully illustrated her 10 stories. The stories are old African folk tales, beautiful but not so gentle. We don't read them to the little ones yet.
The stories are really special to read, it starts with Who is the king? a story from Ethiopia, then stories from Morocco; Nigeria; Ghana; Kenya; South Africa; Malawi and Zimbabwe. Very fun and also educational!
