Product Description

In the spirit of Mother Goose, Off to the Sweet Shores of Africa and Other Talking Drum Rhymes is a colourful collectionof original African inspired ryhmes. Fun to read aloud, these playful ryhmes conjure West African village life. As in classic nursery ryhmes, the verses are inhabited by charming characters who impart simple wisdom or evoke sure silliness, making this collection not only distictively African, but wonderfully universal. Exquisitely detailed illustrations by Julia Cairns, an engaging author's note and glossary make this enchanting collection from Afirca's sweet shores to ours.
