The Baobab Tree

Description

A lively tale of a grumpy tree who complains once too often. Long, long ago, the gods made the very first tree... and it could talk! Was it happy, you ask? It was not. The Baobab Tree whinged and moaned, it grumbled and groaned, all day long. But gods have a unique way of dealing with trees who complain too much. A delightful retelling of a traditional story, with free online audio.
