Based on an actual folktale, it is a great story that reinforces the beauty of kindness to young children.  The book also offers a glossary of terms and weaves information about Zambian culture into the story.  Children and adults alike come away better informed about life in Zambia.   This is the first in a series of adventures that follow Sikulu the spider and Harambe the Hippo as they travel to different countries in Africa.
