Dianne Stewart has a passion for collecting and retelling these stories, making them accessible to a whole new audience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn The Guineafowl's Spots and Other African Bird Tales  she has created a unique collection of African folktales, exclusively about birds. Drawn from across the continent, these tales often draw on human characteristics and are followed by African proverbs that illustrate various moral lessons.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis fascinating collection includes classic tales such as 'Why Flamingo Stands on One Leg' from Nigeria, 'The Laughing Dove' from North Africa, and the Xhosa tale 'The Bird That Could Make Milk'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeautiful illustrations by Richard Mackintosh bring to life the magic of the stories and the beauty of birds themselves.
