African Stories

Narrated by Storyteller

In the beginning, the Sky God owned all the stories that would ever be told. So say the Ashanti people of Ghana, in West Africa. But Anansi the spider, who was the most clever of the animals, bought them for a gourd full of hornets, a python, and a leopard. Now, as I am a storyteller, I may borrow some stories from Anansi.
