Folktales from Africa by Dianne Stewart
Aimed at children, both across the African continent as well as around the world, this collection of 20 folktales has been retold by Dianne Stewart for today's youngsters. The stories originate from countries as diverse as Swaziland, Angola, Nigeria, Ghana, Ethiopia, Kenya, Zanzibar and South Africa. Now in a new, user-friendly format and beautifully illustrated by Marjorie van Heerden, Folktales from Africa sustains the intrigue of storytelling that has been passed on from generation to generation. The extraordinary tales are not only interesting, but also highly informative and educational.
Dianne Stewart is an award-winning author who has published many highly acclaimed children's books and others on African culture, both locally (including by Struik Lifestyle) and internationally. She has degrees in African languages and literature, and is well steeped in anthropology, all of which provide an excellent pool of knowledge for her research into African folklore and mythology. Some of her books have been translated into Zulu, Xhosa, French, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Spanish and Braille.
