About this listen
Do you like stories about kings and queens, spirits and monsters, or tricksters and villains?
If so, this book is for you. Containing delightful stories from the Yoruba and other West African peoples, this book presents tales of courage and cunning, virtue and vice, and fortunes found and lost. Some of these stories draw upon actual historical persons and events, while others are purely fictional, but each story has something to delight any listener.
Here are just a few of the stories you will find inside this book:
- How Queen Moremi saved her people from their enemies.
- Why King Oranyan’s staff still stands in its place today.
- How Gassire gave up dreams of a kingdom to become a singer of tales.
- How a king wanted to know what it was like to be poor, and found out the hard way.
- How clever commoners outwitted the kings who wanted to kill them.
- How the Ashanti came to farm yams.
- How a baby who was not yet ready to be born defeated the monster Sasabonsam.
- How the wise and clever Kumba saved her village from a man-eating lion.
- How Kigbo the farmer learned the hard way that it is not wise to play around with spirits.
- And much, much more!
