- Used Book in Good Condition
Credo Mutwa's ability as a unique storyteller is revealed as he combines poetry and humour, tenderness and violence, factual information and mystic beliefs in a rare and most delightful way. He writes about a vast array of animals, from domestic pets and farmyard animals to lions, snakes and crocodiles, including each with a praise song, followed by traditional tales which provide insight into the myriad African traditions and beliefs surrounding each animal. Highly entertaining and eminently readable, the tales reveal the reverence in which animals are held according to African ritual and tradition. 222 pages.
