Collected on the island of Zanzibar, these tales from the Swahili coast include the monkey who outwits the shark, the hare and the lion, the lion, the hyena and the rabbit, the kites and the crows, and a clever gazelle who serves a poor man and a sultan. Bateman introduces them for young readers.

Witty, ancient trickster stories from East Africa, delightful to read aloud. Download the free EPUB.
