Hands down, one of my favorite books from my childhood. Just re-read it today because.. why not?

I enjoyed the Anansi stories shared in SOTW more than this tale.

4.5 stars The impact of these illustrations is incredible. I would love to build a collection of McDermott books for their aesthetic alone.

I just want anansi to be as ubiquitous as cinderella. Is this the best intro to him? nah, but its a good one, and there SO MANY anansi stories that you can read all of them and there will seldom be a whole lot of overlap.
