Summary

The nice thing about African mythology is that it is rooted in such ancient traditions. And although the west hasn’t fully embraced some of these interesting stories, they have been told by many and remembered by some, enough to write them down and discover what they are all about. Different regions have different traditions, of course, and you’ll learn more about many of them in this book. The mythological creatures, animals, gods, and goddesses all have distinct qualities and traits, so strap up and go for a ride in the African world of fantasy as you learn what people believed in and imagined. Find out more about the culture, the fertility rituals, birth, death, creation, and lots of other details.

Great content, poor performance

It's rare to find great content about Africa, but Coby did some excellent research for this book. Although, they missed out on a lot of great myths from East and Central Africa's Bantu Kingdoms. Logan's performance was really dull. She sounds like she is reading to preschool children. Overall, get the book if you can live through a preschool class for great stories.
