This important collection of folktales, some of which you may be familiar with, is sure to rekindle in you the love of reading and hopefully set you on to start thinking of similar folktales from your own area. Whether you read this collection of folktales alone as part of a private leisure pursuit, or as part of a class reader, or aloud to your children, as it used to be narrated in many a village by the fireside, you will find in this collection, pages of sheer reading pleasure which will shrill and enlighten you. The pages of this book are full of the typical folktale characters of the cunning Rabbit or Hare, admirably handled, full of interest, playing havoc with everyone, and often becoming a victim of his own ploy. There is also the majestic Lion, King of the jungle, prancing lazily all over the pages, often outsmarted by lesser animals. Then there is the Tortoise, whose slow crawl and foul stinking fart betray this treasure house of wisdom whose sole life mission seems to be the unravelling of the jealousies and intrigues abound in the animal planet. In writing this book, Dr Marcellina Morgan not only draws our attention to the central function of folklore in traditional education, but makes an important contribution to the genre of oral literature. Dr Morgan's narrative of action is masterly with the animal characters assuming a breathtaking life of their own, while the meticulous recreation of the stories should inspire, fascinate and grip the reader.

This is a rare treat, a collection of folktales and fables from South Sudan - the newest country in the world. These stories will be most familiar amongst the Dinka, one of the country's many ethnicities, but they are also known in other parts of the country. While South Sudan's many groups vary in language and culture, they share a history of orality: the oral tradition of sharing stories verbally and retelling them through many generations. But times are changing rapidly and there is a risk that these stories will be lost unless they are written down and David Aoloch Bion has done just that. The stories he presents here speak of universal themes: marriage, lying and gluttony, bravery, cheating and deception. Clever and entertaining, with animal characters that often morph into humans and back again, Folktales from South Sudan will be a delightful read, for those who are familiar with these stories and those who are not.

In 2011, South Sudan became the world's newest nation. Tragically, it is now suffering from civil war and famine. These traditional animal stories, published for the first time, have been passed down from parents to children for generations. The hope is that the lessons these fun-to-read stories teach will be used in South Sudan's schools to help prepare its children to achieve their country's promise. But more than that, these stories can teach valuable lessons to children everywhere as they begin to assume their responsibility to build a better world.

THESE MYTHS and folktales are a collection from my own pool of stories, told when I was a child in the village and locked up somewhere in the recesses of my memory. Although much has decayed with time or been wiped out by other peoples' stories fighting for front-page in my brain, I am sure there is a lot more in there that I cannot recall at the moment but which will come to the fore in due time. All I need is a catalyst, such as returning to the village, even if briefly. The village environment and atmosphere in which these stories are told impress them very firmly on the memory of the listener. Just imagine yourself as a child member of a family sitting around a wood fire on a dark night in the centre of your household compound, or lying in bed in a mud and thatched hut. All around you is darkness. Maybe it is raining, and there is lightning and thunder.

The booklet contains fifteen short bedtime stories. They cover creation accounts, tales about a giant called Choldit, and other related stories featuring lions, foxes, elephants, and other creatures. Each story is brief and crafted in a way that teaches children or adults, too, certain ethics. The authors pointto morals learned at the end of each story. These oral stories, indeed, enable children to appreciate nature and, by extension, teach them lifelong values worth emulating. They teach children to shun out vices, such as deceit, cowardice, and wickedness, among others. These stories are unique too; they come from a remote and unknown villageAjok. Given that oral stories are from a memory, which is bound to fail, they may not be the same across every village in South Sudan among the Dinka Malual, let alone the entire Jieng. Hence, readers should expect even village variations if they are to read other accounts.
