With lots of sound effects and comic voices, these audio versions of five Anansi stories by a talented stand-up comedian and actor were inspired by the author's visit to Ghana and his realisation of the cultural importance to Africans and African Americans of this story-telling tradition. Here, Anansi learns hard lessons when his selfishness and greed comically rebound on him, teaching values of sharing and hospitality, and bringing benefits such as light and wisdom to the world.
