Summary

Anansi feels bad that humans don't have any stories to tell each other, so he goes to the Sky God to ask for some, but there's a price to pay. The Sky God needs Anansi to complete a long series of difficult challenges, and only then can he have some stories to share! Will he make it? Tune into this West African fable, performed for you by our friend Melly from Stoopkid Stories, to find out!
