A traditional Shona folktale from Zimbabwe as adapted and illustrated for younger readers, ages 4-8. Akin to Cinderella, it's the story of two daughters, one selfish and cruel, the other thoughtful, and their fate. The handsome illustrations by the Brooklyn-born author were inspired by the stone palaces, towers and buildings of Great Zimbabwe, the ancient Shona city. A Caldecott Award-winner.
