| Publisher Description: In this book, the author immerses us in the freshness of children's imagination - a world in which animals live side-by-side with human beings. Soothed by an oral African culture that proceeds from the depth of ages, Emmanuel Matateyou, as a true transmitter of knowledge relates with moving tenderness traditional African narratives in which poetry and songs accompany the people in their everyday life. In simple language and a fluid style, this book - which is full of liveliness and charm - captivates the reader with its appealing and poignant illustrations which depict the scenes of African villages which are described with humor and fantasy. These tales are sometimes funny, sometimes violent, but always full of warmth and of life. |
