Opis

Beauty Contest in the Animal Kingdom presents an illustrated storybook that reflects on the importance of humility and patience. Using a beauty contest among the animals, author Abraham Adeleke conveys the message that everyone is uniquely beautiful, portrayed by the animals in distinctive and powerful ways. Beauty Contest in the Animal Kingdom also explores what it takes to be beautiful on the inside as well as on the outside, what it takes to win people's trust, and what it takes to be highly esteemed in one's community. Moral lessons and thought-provoking questions are included at the end of the story to guide children to the story's message, exploring the moral qualities that each individual animal contestant possesses. Passing on animal stories and folktales is universal; it is part of the culture of the first people of the world, the Africans. Come join the elephant, gorilla, duck, antelope, and all the other animals in this unique and powerful folktale.
