In the thirteenth century, Sundiata overcame physical handicaps, social disgrace, and strong opposition to rule the West African trading empire of Mali.
A wonderful KIDS' book with gorgeous artistic illustrations! I bought it for myself, thinking it was a regular novel. I definitely need to read the fine print better next time.
That said, the story is fantastic though! Especially the notes at the end, which provide historical references, background info, and much more of what first drew me (an adult) to buy the book in the first place.
