About the Book

Ijapa the tortoise, Aja the dog, Okere the squirrel, Asin the rat, Akere the toad, Kolokolo the fox, Akuko the rooster, Ekun the tiger, Obo the monkey! An array of delightful animals that are used symbolically in African folktales with their names translated here into the beautiful and diverse language of Yoruba. Spoken primarily in Nigeria, West Africa reaching all the way to Latin America and the Caribbean especially Cuba. Ijapa the tortoise the main protagonist has a variety of often ill-fated adventures with all these animals and many more in this collection of folktales titled "African Languages Made Easy Series". The Tortoise who is defined as a lazy, slow moving dull animal comes alive paradoxically in these stories as - crafty, wily, cunning and devious. Always almost trying to outsmart animals that are bigger, stronger and supposedly smarter than himself, he finds himself at the short end of the stick.
About the Author: Even though she was raised in Lagos, Nigeria, Dr. Ololade (Lola) Okubena considers herself to be a "citizen of the world." Surrounded by books in her parent's house, she started to read at an early age and developed a lifelong fascination for the people and cultures of other countries. After she received her medical degree, her work took her out of Nigeria, and thus began her worldwide journey to explore the languages, religions, foods, customs, and day-to-day lives of the people she had read about when she was a child.
