Mansa
Musa
by Khephra Burns
When a stranger in a sky blue robe appears in the 14th century Malian
village of Kaba Kangaba, young Kankan Musa is spellbound. He joins the
other villagers in an evening of stories and celebration... only to have
the spell broken by the arrival of slave raiders who seize Kankan and carry
him off to the desert. Here begins our hero's story: is he destined to
be a slave for life? Or will this be the launch of a journey to self-discovery
and maturity?
Khephra Burns's exquisitely told account of one of the greatest kings
of Mali is based solidly in fact, although the details of his boyhood are
imagined. Partnered with the rich, breathtaking illustrations by two-time
Caldecott Medalists, Leo and Diane Dillon (Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People's
Ears and Ashanti to Zulu), this beautifully formatted picture book will
capture the imagination and fascination of children everywhere. (Ages 8
and older) --Emilie Coulter - Amazon.com
