In Literacy, we read the short story "Ananse's Feast: An Ashanti Tale" retold by Tolowa M. Mollel and illustrated by Andrew Glass.
Synopsis:
"There is a famine in the land and Ananse has been stocking his food. When he decides to make a feast, Akye the turtle, wanders by and wants to join. Ananse finds a way to trick Akye and greedily eats all the food himself. Tale of greed, trickery, and sharing." - Goodreads.com
