Features: During his time teaching in Africa, a Chinese student fell deeply in love with African folk literature. He devoted four long years to painstakingly collecting, organizing, translating, and compiling a magnificent masterpiece titled African Folktales. This book includes African myths, legends, stories, folk customs, proverbs, fairy tales, and fables. It is a vivid and colorful long scroll depicting Africa, where each story is not only beautiful and magical but also contains profound life philosophies. African Folktales can fully rival Grimms' Fairy Tales, Italian Folktales, and Russian Folktales. This cross-border creation by a Chinese scholar is not only challenging but also highly meaningful. When we select those lively and adorable philosophical stories, fables, and parables from African Folktales, our hearts are filled with deep admiration for our fellow countrymen. We believe history will remember this scholar and give him the recognition he deserves. So now, let us remember his name—Dong Tianqi!
