Spider and the Honey Tree (Matte Cover): A Liberian Tale

I have collected and rewritten around 300 folk tales in my life. This Spider story from Liberia is my very favorite tale to share with an audience of children. As usual, there are lessons to be learned, and they are usually learned the hard way. Spider, a very crafty trickster, plans to take advantage of a young girl’s generosity. Does it work? Does he learn a lesson? You’re going to have to read Spider and the Honey Tree to find out.
