Tales of East Africa is a collection of 22 traditional tales from Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania.

Welcome to a world of magical adventure-a
place where a boy spares the life of a fearsome monster, a flock of
doves brings a girl back from the dead, and a hare wreaks havoc among
all the other animals.


Translated and transcribed by folklorists and anthropologists in the early 20th century, these stories evoke the distinctive beauty and irresistible humor of East African folklore.



* The tales come alive alongside bold, contemporary art in this special illustrated edition.

* Each story transports readers to an enthralling world.

* Part of the popular Tales series, featuring Tales of Japan, Celtic Tales, and Tales of India



Tales of East Africa will enthrall fans of fairytales and captivate those interested in East Africa's rich history and culture.



Readers
will encounter mischievous animals, plucky heroes and heroines, and
monsters, and artist Jamilla Okubo pairs each tale with a bold and
vibrant illustration.
