Favorite African Folktales is a landmark work that gathers many of Africa's most cherished folktales-stories from an oral heritage that predates Ovid and Aesop-in one extraordinary volume. Nelson Mandela has selected these thirty-two tales, many of them translated from their original tongues, with the specific hope that Africa's oldest stories, as well as a few new ones, will be perpetuated by future generations and appreciated by children and adults throughout the world.
