Underpinned by common Jamaican themes, A Jamaican Storyteller's Tale is the story of a young man intent on saving an aspect of his heritage that is dying - storytelling. Heavily influenced by his father's skill at relating these stories, he comes face to face with the possibility of losing his heritage when his family migrates. Lorrimer Burford merges traditional Jamaican tales with the story of this young man to create a unique synthesis.

Professional Storyteller Wendy Shearer has gathered together stories from many Caribbean islands and countries, drawing on oral history and written texts to bring these folk tales to life. Many stories are of West African origin, kept alive through rhythm and song. These tales and their languages were blended with European and East Indian folklore, with royalty, heroes and spirits exacting revenge. Alongside the stories are newly collected reminiscences of migration to Britain from Caribbean countries during the Windrush years. These first-hand accounts mirror the themes found in the folk tales with love and loss, magic and mystery, caution and justice. Cric! Crac! Prepare to be enchanted by La Diablesse from Haiti, outsmarted by the trickster Anansi, or terrified by the shapeshifting Old Higue in Guyana.

The stories in this collection were taken down from the lips of over sixty negro story-tellers in the remote country districts of Jamaica during two visits to the island, one of six weeks in the summer of 1919, the other of five weeks in the winter of 1921. The music was all recorded during the second visit by Miss Helen Roberts, either directly from the story-teller or from a phonographic record which I had made. In this way the original style of the story-telling, which in some instances mingles story, song and dance, is as nearly as possible preserved, although much is necessarily lost in the slow process of dictation. The lively and dramatic action, the change in voice, even the rapid and elliptical vernacular, can not appear on the printed page...

Sometimes I collect my folk tales from a local storyteller when I am on location painting my murals. Yes, absolutely, that is the best way to get a tale. But, it isn't nearly as easy to do as you might think. So, very frequently, I have to research folk tale collections to get the perfect story for me to rewrite. For reasons that I'll never understand, my trip to Jamaica was rescheduled over and over (five times!) in a process that lasted more than a year. I really wasn't sure if I was ever going to make it to that corner of the Caribbean. But, when I finally set foot in Kingston, I not only had a very entertaining story written, but the book was hot off the press! In the tale, Spider wants to get his pig across a creek. And, since he's Spider, he wants to do it for free. As the story progresses, a variety of characters pass by the creek. Each of them was threatened if they didn't help. At one point, a butcher -- ready to slice up a bull -- asks, "Would you like one patty or two?" When I wrote that line, of course, I thought about beef patties for a hamburger. I mean, what else could it mean? Well, the word "patty" means something entirely different in Jamaica. It's a flaky pastry that is stuffed with a variety of deliciousness. That goodness could include chicken, jerk chicken, cheese, shrimp, tuna, spinach, vegetables, and of course, beef. I guess you can always make them at home, but in Jamaica, it seems to be perfectly acceptable to get your patties at a local fast food place called Tastee. You can get them at other shops, but it is common knowledge that you should go to Tastee. In fact, after the lesson, it's where I went to eat patties with my students.

The all new essays in this book discuss black cultural retellings of traditional, European fairy tales. The representation of black protagonists in such tales helps to shape children's ideas about themselves and the world beyond--which can ignite a will to read books representing diverse characters. The need for a multicultural text set which includes the multiplicity of cultures within the black diaspora is discussed. The tales referenced in the text are rich in perspective: they are Aesop's fables, Cinderella, Rapunzel and Ananse. Readers will see that stories from black perspectives adhere to the dictates of traditional literary conventions while still steeped in literary traditions traceable to Africa or the diaspora.
