Wooden Gongs and Drumbeats II: African Moonlight Tales, Proverbs and Idioms

Wooden Gongs and Drumbeats

African Moonlight night folk tales, Proverbs and Idioms

This is a collection of African traditional moonlight night stories. After the day's work in a typical African homestead, we gather in the centre of the compound under the full moon and the old one will tell us stories of the lion, the tortoise and other animals, tales of valiant and heroic acts and tales of failures and mischief. These stories are divided into moral stories, how and why stories and spiced with deep African proverbs, idioms and wise sayings.
