    About this ebook

    In Issue 24 of the Baba Indaba Children's Stories, Baba Indaba narrates the Russian Baba Yaga tale of SALT and that of Ivan the Ninny. Ivan's father gave two great ships to Ivan's older brothers and a small, worn-out ship with patchwork sails to Ivan and sends them across to trade. But Ivan comes back with his ship laden with treasure and a Princess on his arm, while his brothers don't have much to show. How did Ivan do it? Well you'll have to read the story to find out!

    Baba Indaba is a fictitious Zulu storyteller who narrates children's stories from around the world. Baba Indaba translates as "Father of Stories".

    This book also has a "Where in the World - Look it Up" section, where young readers are challenged to look up a place on a map somewhere in the world. The place, town or city is relevant to the story, on map. HINT - use Google maps.
