Chapter 11 Ancient Africa ~ Anansi the Spider

Published November 5, 2009 Color Pages , Maps , Videos Leave a Comment

Anansi the Spider and his stories are very popular and we found some videos of his stories as told by Denzel Washington on Youtube. There are three videos all together. The first one has a relatively low volume. My children really enjoyed these after reading about Anansi in the chapter 11 of Story of the World.

Here is the link to the videos…
