LANGUAGE ARTS / CREATIVE WRITING / FOLKLORE Books for Growing Minds(tm) present "ANANSI is ANANSE!", a delightful interactive folktale-drama (story) that will engage both the reader and all who have gathered around for the telling of this tale. Initially published as Ananse Makes It So!, this edition continues with our mission to publish books and articles that encourage family time and meaningful play. Through our publications, Books for Growing Minds(tm) is dedicated to supporting family literacy and healthy social interaction through the art of storytelling. This engaging story met much success when the author first wrote it in Simon and Schuster's bestselling anthology on African/African American storytelling and favored by children's librarians, university-level Drama and Literature classes, and children's theater. The illustrations (photographed plates for this edition) were done by artist-nutritionist Verena Durrmeier. She perfectly renders the author's idea of depicting "non-threatening looking, cute, dancing spiders that even arachnophobes would not mind reading about." Available in French and Spanish translations, ANANSI is ANANSE! is a "let's do" story that promises to be interactive fun for all. ~Books for Growing Minds(tm)"ANANSI is ANANSE! is one, powerful, little book. Not only does it so accurately and playfully depict the behavior of Ananse the spider-man, an ancient, timeless, folktale character, the book's Cultural Enrichment section after the story is rich with engaging information that will appeal to educators." ~ L. Logan, SUMMARY: Rabbit decides to visit his friend Anansi-the-spider whom he hasn't seen in quite a while. Wanting to celebrate their seemingly forever friendship, Rabbit invites Anansi to join him in making a drum. From his cozy hammock, Anansi refuses with excuses of being too sick to get involved with drum-making. Alone, Rabbit works hard at making his "friendship" drum. While Rabbit is resting from the day's hard work at drum-making, he soon finds Anansi playing his drum, the very same drum he was supposedly "too sick" to help make. Anansi ends up in an embarrassing situation, one that we all may come face to face with from time to time.ABOUT THE AUTHORA native of Philadelphia (PA), J'miah Nabawi's storytelling career was inspired by the legendary Mandinka Griot (Djeli), Djeliba Djimo Kouyate. This lead to the meeting and befriending of Linda Goss (Mama Linda Goss), best-selling author and the "Official Storyteller of Philadelphia." Mama Linda Goss would eventually mentor J'miah onto the path of professional performance storytelling for which he is known today. His upbeat brand of storytelling reflects the story-dance-musical drama of Africa and its Diaspora. Bilingual in Spanish and a polyglot of sorts, J'miah also tell stories from around the world and is known to incorporate vocabulary, songs and text in the languages of Twi, Spanish, French, Chinese, Yoruba, Japanese and Ki-Swahili. J'miah's artistic involvement with children and youth in under-served rural and urban areas has been recognized with Proclamations / Citations from the Pennsylvania House of Representatives in Harrisburg, PA and by the City of Miami (Miami Dade City Council), Miami, FL. J'miah is also an esteemed recipient of the National Storytelling Network's (Jonesborough, TN) "ORACLE Award for Outstanding Service and Leadership, Southeast Region" for his "exemplary leadership to his community through storytelling." ~ The Elijah Agency"The students at Jasper Elementary love J'miah. (The teachers at our school find him to be a full partner in curricular planning and implementation of lessons and units.) J'miah can tell stories, write and direct plays that are performed school-wide, teach small groups and make children laugh and smile. If he had a cape, he could fly . . . at least the children think so." - Dr. Kathleen Thompson, Retired Arts Educator/Director of Cultural Projects (Georgia Council for the Arts)

LANGUAGE ARTS / CREATIVE WRITING / FOLKLOREBooks for Growing Minds(TM) introduces ANANSI is ANANSE! A 7th Edition Celebration in 7" x 10" size and with color pages, decidedly more suitable for university, schools and public libraries. Like its pocket size edition, this delightful interactive folktale-drama (story) will engage both the reader and all whom have gathered around for the telling of this tale. Initially written by the author and published in a Simon and Schuster Anthology of African and African American storytelling, "Why Spiders Hide in Corners/Ananse Makes It So!" is now in its 7th edition and titled as "Anansi is Ananse!" This edition celebrates KWAKU ANANSE, a.k.a Anansi the Spider-Man and the longevity of the author's telling of this tale. "A 7th Edition Celebration" also celebrates the author's recent translations (June 2015) of the story into three major world languages, French, Spanish and Mandarin Chinese. ANANSI is ANANSE! continues with our mission to publish folktales, stories and authors promoting the preservation of "oral literature" that encourages family time, wellness and meaningful play. Through our publications, Books for Growing Minds(tm) is dedicated to supporting family literacy, healthy social interaction and wellness through the art of storytelling. Anansi is Ananse! is a folktale-dance-musical drama that has been met with much success. It has been favored by children's librarians, university-level Drama and Literature classes, and children's theater. A middle school in South Carolina (USA) has begun dramatizing Anansi is Ananse! into a "FOLKTALE-POP-OPERA!" This celebration continues with the finding of files of the original illustrations that were presumed lost after not having them for 15 years. They were "rediscovered" in the files of a local copying center when the author visited for something else. The images of those original drawings done by Nutritionist-Artist, Verena Durrmeier, now grace the pages of this book in lively black and white fashion. "Ms. Durrmeier perfectly illustrated my idea of having cute, animated, friendly (and choreographed) spiders that even arachnophobes would not mind reading about," says the author. ANANSI is ANANSE! is a "let's do" story that promises to be fun for all. Enjoy! ~ Books for Growing Minds(TM)"ANANSI is ANANSE! is one, powerful, little book.

When the Asante people of Ghana came to the New World as slaves, they brought with them the rich, oral tradition of their home culture. Somewhere in their misery, Kwaku Ananse, the mischievous and cunning spider who, with his friends, personified so many human traits survived, and helped them keep their spirits up. Anansi's extreme cleverness, his ability to be both hero and antihero at once, appeal especially to second graders. His stories have fable characteristics, and in most Jamaican versions, his tales will end in a proverb or saying. The little play reflects the lightheartedness of Anansi in five of his many adventures. They can be used as one, or separated, depending on class size.
