Description

Told with African thumb piano and character voices, this clever tale captures the whimsy of language, and how almost anything can be made true with words, even when it isn’t. It comes from the Soninke people, founders of the Ghana Empire that flourished between 750 and 1240 A.D. in West Africa.
