The Magic Fish Bones

Author: Nick Greaves

Format: Medium Softcover

Condition: Very Good

The storytellers of old related tales of why bat hangs upside down and why crab has no head. In The Magic Fish Bones, author Nick Greaves continues this ancient tradition by retelling the myths and legends of Southern African tribes.

The nineteen stories in this volume introduce a magical cast of characters from a feisty buck, greedy vultures, and a bewitched crocodile to an arrogant bat and the perpetually crafty hare. This collection of tales is a delightful addition to the successful series by the author, including When Hippo was Hairy, When Lion Could Fly, When Elephant was King, and When Bat was a Bird.
