Summary

After eating his way into Elephant’s melon and getting stuck, Anansi decides his only way out is to trick his friends into believing that the melon can talk. Elephant is delighted to share his special melon with the other animals, especially King Monkey. When the melon insults the King, however, mayhem ensues, much to Anansi’s glee.  Snappy and fresh, this playful tale is a perfect read-aloud.  In the most recent book about the sly Spider, Anansi steals Hyena’s magic cleaning stick, with disastrous results.  The essence of the various animals’ characters is brilliantly captured in this humorous narration and the lesson learned is as engaging as the story itself.
