5.0
This is an older book, but worth seeking out. Fourteen short tales and fables are told in a snappy vernacular style, with lots of dialogue and onomatopoeia. Mr. Bryan’s block-print art has a clean modern primitive style that keeps the whole thing looking sophisticated and cool.
I would give this book with a copy of the Lonely Planet Not for Parents Africa book. The great pictures in that book bring the continent to life, and the dozens of way-out factoids make for great dinner table sharing.
