Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Anyone else a fan of the Anansi books by Eric Kimmel?

We were just introduced to Anansi through our Story of the World reading, and my kids get such a kick out of reading about all his adventures.

Anansi and the Talking Melon is one of their favorites. Who knew spider stories could be such fun?

spiders, Africa, nature, wits

They're our favorites, too! My kids just LOVE these! Last summer every time we went on a nature hike they were on the lookout for "moss-covered rocks". So fun.

This has sent me on a whole Eric Kimmel kick. I just picked up a bunch of reserves from the library from him. I'll post if I find any more gems...
