This Nigerian folktale about how human greed forced the sky to move far away from the Earth was very enjoyable to read. This story gives young children a chance to experience a traditional tale from another culture while also instilling them with the values of humility and generosity. The one quarrel I had with this book was that it is another story about a woman whose poor judgment results in the misfortune of all. Being a feminist, I am always bothered by this theme; however, I understand that this is the story as it was told over 500 years ago, and I appreciate this traditional tale for that reason. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

The sky was once so close to the Earth that people cut parts of it to eat, but their waste and greed caused the sky to move far away. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
