This is a beautiful African tale that my parents read to me since I was a young child. I was so happy to find this as an adult and relive this classic. The book was damaged on the spine, so I returned it for a different version.

I like the author John Steptoe. The book was a hardcopy and had a book cover as well. Very pleased with my purchase. The company left an appreciation letter which made me feel appreciated.

A great story

This is a great story with excellent values to teach children. I remember reading this story in the 3rd grade and fell in love with it! I bought it to share and teach my daughter these values that everyone need to display throughout their lives.
