"This is the second volume of the series "He yphlios ton paramythion" (The universe of fairytales), aiming to give young readers the opportunity to get to know far-away places through the tales of their people. So, in this volume, children can read about the adventures of a man who put fire on the top of a mountain (Ethiopia); hear a potato talking (Guinea); learn why the frog lost its tail (Tanzania); be informed about why people follow the moonb2ss life-style and not that of a banana (Madagascar); meet children who were born on a fig tree (Kenya); and listen to a hunter talking to his flute (Nigeria). These traditional African tales are retold in a fascinating way and illustrated by an experienced artist." (From Whiteravens catalog)
