Anansi the Spider: a Tale from the Ashanti by Gerald McDermott

By Lauren Ayube

Anansi is a popular folktale character who originated from West Africa. He often takes the shape of a spider, and is known as quite the trickster. He has the ability to outsmart, outwit, and beat his opponents using his cunning creativity. Although Anansi is a trickster, he is often seen as the protagonist in his stories, as he learns lessons from his weaknesses and turns them into messages of triumph and goodness.
