A wild and magical collection of fairytales, similar to those I knew, but markedly changed by a culture so unfamiliar to my own.
I read this collection as part of my mission to read a book from every country I travel to. The long and numerous passages in Bahamian Creole, alone makes this worth the read.
You can learn a lot about a people by the stories they tell their children.

While I'm not a Bahamian, this book rings true based on what I know about island life in the US Virgin Islands. You'll get a glimpse into the fishbowl island culture, and a belly-laugh too!
