"While Bobby Norfolk was visiting the town of Kumasi in Ghana in the summer of 1993, a woman told him, 'At four-thirty every afternoon, we try to gather together and have Anansi time.' At her invitation, Norfolk attended the community-wide afternoon break and heard elders tell stories of Anansi, the tireless trickster of Ghanian tradition."
"Paul Laurence Dunbar was born in Dayton, Ohio, in 1872, to parents who were both former slaves. From this humble and impoverished background, he went on to achieve international recognition for his work, which he alternately rendered in African-American dialect and in standard English. His work was popular with both black and white readers. Though he died of tuberculosis at the age of 33, his output was prolific. Before his death, he published twelve poetry collections, four short-story collections, one play, and five novels."
"Award-winning storyteller Bobby Norfolk brings his talents to six traditional stories. A mixture of classic stories and lesser-known folktales, these are all performance-tested audience favorites, capturing Norfolk's trademark energy and humor. Whether the story is from the American South, Japan, or the Caribbean, Norfolk pinpoints the message of the story and invites his listeners to celebrate the best in all of us."
"Emmy Award-winning storyteller Bobby Norfolk brings his electrifying energy to this diverse collection of folktales, which come from the African, British, European, and Appalachian traditions. From Anansi, the African trickster, to Jack, the bumbling, lucky, persevering Everyman of tradition lore, Norfolk's characters instruct while they entertain."
