Hungry Hyena

Mwenye Hadithi
Illustrated by Adrienne Kennaway
(Hodder Children's Books)
978-0340626856, RRP £5.99, Paperback
Buy "Hungry Hyena (African Animal Tales)" on Amazon

An entertaining story which has a very strong atmosphere of the traditional tale about it. Bold, clear pictures and a rich but straightforward text tell of the way in which the fish eagle avenges himself for the trick Hyena plays on him. Interesting animals, such as the pangolin, widen children's horizons and the satisfying plot offers opportunities for that nice feeling of justice being done which so many traditional tales offer.
