Anansi the Spider: a Tale from the Ashanti by Gerald McDermott

By Lauren Ayube

Anansi is a popular folktale character who originated from West Africa. He often takes the shape of a spider, and is known as quite the trickster. He has the ability to outsmart, outwit, and beat his opponents using his cunning creativity. Although Anansi is a trickster, he is often seen as the protagonist in his stories, as he learns lessons from his weaknesses and turns them into messages of triumph and goodness.

  • Favorite Scene From Anansi the Spider: A Tale From the Ashanti by Gerald McDermott
  • My favorite scene from this tale is when Nyame throws the glowing ball up into the sky. This is my favorite part because it is an interesting explanation for how the moon came to be.
