A timeless trickster tale from Africa about silly spider, Anansi. Did you ever wonder why spiders have no hair? After reading Anansi and the Pot of Beans, you too will know the answer. This classic folktale from Africa, written by Bobby and Sherry Norfolk, tells the story of when Anansi goes to help his grandmother. Upon arrival he finds her steaming, hot pot of beans, which he can’t resist. This is where the fun begins. Anansi and the Pot of Beans is a charming story that is entertaining while also teaching important life lessons in character values about responsibility and trust. While author, Bobby Norfolk was visiting the town of Kumasi in Ghana in the summer of 1993, a woman told him, “At four-thirty every afternoon, we try to gather together and have Anansi time.” Norfolk attended the afternoon break and heard elders tell stories of Anansi, the tireless trickster of Ghanian tradition. Anansi Appears in these stories in his most playful and creative guises. The Norfolks’ adaptations brim with action, energy, and humor.
