This collection of folktales from South Africa has been put together the author says, not for scholarship but for a love of the sunny country where he was born. Some stories originate from Dutch sources, and some have several versions. Most are tales told by the bushmen.

This anthology includes eight traditional tales from all over Africa. Sumptuous hand-sewn collage artwork decorated with African beads adorns these unforgettable tales of bravery, wisdom, wit and heroic deeds

Drawn from all parts of Africa, these stories for children aged ten and over illustrate the fierce sense of justice inherent in African peoples, their powers of patience and endurance, and their supreme ability as story-tellers.

Sun and Moon must leave their earthly home after Sun invites the Sea to visit.

Once Upon Southern Africa is a collection of fifty tales from around the tip of Africa. The countries in Southern Africa offer such a wealth of experiences. I know this because I lived in Zambia for two years and took every opportunity possible to travel the region. But, just like my tales from West Africa, these stories rarely end with the words "and they all lived happily ever after."
