Book Details
A Treasure Trove of African Fables
In this whimsical collection, the reader is transported to the imaginary fondom (kingdom) of Ufasino, where bullying, jealousy, disobedience, greed, selfishness, and pride coexist with qualities that help develop a successful community, including friendship, kindness, and love. The Fondom of Ufasino Collection is the first book and part of a broader compilation of The Muse’s Fables, short stories whose characters include humans, animals, and plants—all part of God’s creation and, as such, bound to live in harmony in accordance with African belief. These fables are vividly and richly crafted, compelling the reader, regardless of age or background, to reflect more deeply on the consequences of our actions and our relationships with people and nature.
