Anansi the spider and the birthday cake

In 'Anansi the Spider and the Birthday Cake,' you embark on an adventure with Anansi, the clever spider from countless West African, Surinamese, and Caribbean folk tales. Anansi is incredibly cheerful; it is his birthday! He eagerly awaits the cake that he, like every year, gets to collect from the king. This cake promises to be the biggest and tastiest ever, baked especially for him. But to his surprise, when Anansi arrives at the palace, he discovers that Turtle is already there. It is his birthday today too. When it is finally time for cake, only a tiny pastry is brought in. Anansi would rather draw lots for the whole cake than share it fairly with Turtle. But is that really such a smart idea? Iven Cudogham and his Anansi the Spider have become indispensable: from TV to theater and from cinema to bookshelf, you encounter the cheerful and colorful stories about the legendary spider Anansi everywhere. The picture books are based on classic stories from West Africa, Suriname, and the Caribbean, which are now known all over the world. With the first picture book in this series, 'Anansi the Spider and the Greedy Tiger', Iven Cudogham and Moldybyrd Studio already proved what cheerful, colorful picture books are created when they join forces, and 'Anansi the Spider and the Birthday Cake' is another example bursting with fun. For children aged 4 and up.
