Book Synopsis The Orphan Girl and Other Stories by :
Book excerpt: The Orphan Girl includes a fascinating introduction exploring the roots of the storytelling tradition in the history and culture of West Africa. Each country is represented by several stories, a map and brief information. To compile these tales, Kent State professor and storyteller Buchi Offodile searched villages for elders who remembered the old stories. These 41 tales are culled from a lifetime of listening, reading, and researching.
