Description
Ages 4+ A lively re-telling of a traditional African tale, specially written for children just learning to read. Anansi might be a King but he is also just a spider, so can he really beat Elephant and Rhino in a tug of war? Easy-to-read text is brought to life with vibrant illustrations, and puzzles at the back help to consolidate learning - guaranteed to inspire beginner readers.
