I have finally finished reading this children's book,which, even as an adult, took me weeks!
I think it's a complex tale,which at times surprised me with the adult themes explored and sometimes dark imagery.
I've never read any of Yaba Badoe's work before but am glad I have discovered her and think she writes remarkably well, with such deep descriptions that capture the essence of her wild imagination.

So far into this children's book I can see that I will learn a lot about a different (African) culture from the vivid description the author uses right from the start.
