Africa - Hardcover - Tales from the Jungle River and the Savanna - by Silvana Salerno

The art of telling stories is very old: it arose before writing. In Africa, the storyteller is called a griô: he is the master of the arts and popular culture and has the role of bringing knowledge to the village. The author Silvana Salerno, passionate about Brazilian culture, with titles awarded by the FNLIJ, went to visit Africa and understand its influence on our culture. This book tells stories from Africa that helped in the formation of Brazilian culture, as they came from the countries from which Africans were brought as slaves to Brazil. A rich and interesting read, with beautiful illustrations!
