The 13 Anansi stories in this short volume were originally, and unusually, an appendix to Popular Tales from the Norse by Sir George Webbe Dasent. Why he chose to include folklore from Africa and the Caribbean within a volume of Norse folklore has been forgotten in the mists of time. Abela Publishing has elected to re-publish these as a volume in their own right as an aide to Edgbarrow School’s fundraising campaign supporting the SOS Children’s Village in Asiakwa, Ghana. ANANSI or Ahnansi (Ah-nahn-see) “the trickster” is a cunning and intelligent spider and is one of the most important characters of West African and Caribbean folklore. The Anansi tales are believed to have originated in the Ashanti tribe in Ghana. (The word Anansi is Akan and means, simply, spider.) They later spread to other Akan groups and then to the West Indies, Suriname, and the Netherlands Antilles. On Curaçao, Aruba, and Bonaire he is known as Nanzi, and his wife as Shi Maria. He is also known as Ananse, Kwaku Ananse, and Anancy; and in the Southern United States he has evolved into Aunt Nancy. He is a spider, but often acts and appears as a man. The story of Anansi is akin to the Coyote or Raven the trickster found in many Native American cultures.

My debut novel in the 'Tales from Ashanti series – ANANSI & THE WISDOM POT' is about how no one person can claim to have all the wisdom in the world. My version of this well-known tale, as it is in all my Tales from Ashanti series deals with the meaning of Ashanti traditional values, ceremonies and protocols and it is meant to explain, teach and educate the youth why certain traditions are performed and observed in the Ashanti nation. What Anansi had to go through on the journey to the palace of Nyame, the sky god to ask for the Wisdom Pot is filled with both captivating suspense and intrigue adventure.
