Ashley Bryan's African Tales, Uh-Huh

Ashley Bryan (1998), 208 pages
Illustrated by Ashley Bryan
Audience: 3rd Grade - 4th Grade
Category: Folklore, Picture Books
Retold with rich, musical, narration and illustrated with Mr. Bryan's distinctive paintings, these tales are full of fun and magic and a few lessons to be learned. They are tales of tricksters, chieftains, and both wise and foolish creatures. You will learn why Frog and Snake never play together, or why Bush Cow and Elephant are bad friends, or of the problems that a husband has because he likes to count spoonfuls. Although the stories come from many parts of Africa, they are full of the universal human spirit, to be shared and treasured for every generation, uh-huh.
