The Turtle's Cracked Shell "African Folktale" Book

We invite you to enter the world of time-honored African folktales with Ada-Ari's retellings in beautifully illustrated storybooks. You will meet new friends - Jabu, Anansi, and Mbekwu - and learn valuable lessons about sharing, following instructions, and keeping one's promise.  Each book features fun, kid-appropriate geography lessons highlighting the specific country in Africa that each story came from and includes a pair of fun fact cards about the specific African tribe that each story originated from. Children will get a great story, a good moral lesson, and a geography/cultural lesson as part of the experience with Ada-Ari Books. In The Turtle's Cracked Shell, you will learn about Mbekwu and the importance of sharing. This hardcover edition includes fun fact cards about Igbo culture – the birthplace of this story.
