    About this ebook

    ISSN: 2397-9607 Issue 369
    In this 369th issue of the Baba Indaba’s Children's Stories series, Baba Indaba narrates the African, Mashona Tale "HOW ISURO THE RABBIT TRICKED GUDU”.

    ONCE upon a time, long, long ago in Mashonaland, a hot place in Northern Zimbabwe, where the forests are very thick and dark, and the rivers very swift and strong, there once lived a strange pair of friends. Now one of the friends was a big white rabbit named Isuro, and the other was a tall baboon called Gudu, and so fond were they of each other that they were seldom seen apart.
    One day, when the sun was hotter even than usual, the rabbit awoke from his midday sleep, and saw Gudu the baboon standing beside him.
    ‘Get up,’ said Gudu; ‘I am going courting, and you must come with me. So put some food in a bag, and sling it round your neck, for we may not be able to find anything to eat for a long while.’
    Then the rabbit rubbed his eyes, and gathered a store of fresh green things from under the bushes, and told Gudu that he was ready for the journey. So off they went……
    But what happened along the way you ask…? Well many things happened, some strange, some silly and some serious, for Africa can be a strange land. To find the answers to these questions, and others you may have, you will have to download and read this 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".

    Each issue 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. HINT - use Google maps.
