It is night in Lower Casamance, by the light of the bonfire some words are heard in Diola: "I am going to tell a story."  "We're listening to you," those who know respond in chorus, gathering around the fire. And stories about dragons, pythons and baobabs, about mermaids are told. 

This book brings together 7 wonderful stories that we have chosen from a lot of stories told in the night of Senegal in their mother tongue.  

​

But this book is more than just a book. If you want to know what there are 

behind these stories, go up and enter our Read with Africa project.
