Description
A magical retelling of a Liberian creation story
Head is all alone. Body bounces along. Arms swing about. Legs stand around. They can't do much by themselves, so they try to work together. But how?
This vibrant, joyous retelling of a traditional Liberian creation story shows how much can be accomplished with a little cooperation.

Reviews
"Colors and patterns were inspired by flags from the Fante people of coastal Ghana. Perfect for flannelboard and silly enough to enchant young listeners, this is a good tale to add to the storytelling repertoire." - School Library Journal
