Stories from West Africa

Introduce preteens to faraway lands through enchanting, tragic, scary, and hilarious folktales. As they finish each book, readers are invited to use their imaginations to extend the stories with continuations and "what if" possibilities. Maps and facts set the scene before each riveting tale.

This page-turner introduces readers to the fearsome Sasabonsam Monster, the stubborn Hate-to-be Contradicted, and a young couple desperate to escape the flesh-eating ghosts of Deadtown.
