Opis

Thanks to our award-winning "action storyteller," J'miah Nabawi, and his "partner in rhyme" collaborator, Chunzi Zhang, Founder of Chunzi Zhang Books, we very pleased (and proud) to present to our Chinese language reading communities and students of Mandarin Chinese, J'miah Nabawi's Why Spiders Hide in Corners (Anansi Makes It So ). With the timeless Akan folk-hero/trickster character, Kwaku Ananse (Anansi the Spider), J'miah Nabawi's engaging, upbeat style of storytelling is a vocal ensemble of drum beats, song, and engaging dialog. T he front of the book is in (Simplified) Mandarin Chinese and immediately followed in English. Books for Growing Minds Summary: Rabbit decides to visit his friend, Anansi (also spelled Ananse), the Spider-Man, whom he hasn't seen in quite some time. Wanting to celebrate their friendship, Rabbit invites Anansi to join him in making a drum. From his cozy hammock, Anansi refuses with excuses of being too sick to get involved with drum-making. Alone, Rabbit works hard at making his "friendship" drum. While Rabbit is resting from the day's hard work at drum-making, he soon finds Anansi playing his drum, the very same drum he was supposedly "too sick" to help make. Anansi ends up in an embarrassing situation, one that we all may come face to face with from time to time.
