    Anansi the Spider
    May 16 2024

    This story (and catchy song) from the Batt Cave is from West Africa and is all about Anansi....the trickster spider man.
    Anansi was a very smart but troublesome god who was changed into a spider by his father Nyame for not giving up his mischievous ways, and there are many traditional stories about Anansi - this is one of them.
