Nelson Mandela's Favorite African Folktales - featuring ALAN RICKMAN!

Nelson Mandela's Favorite African Folktales is a new audiobook for the whole family. This collection of short fables compiles writings and translations by numerous authors and features illustrations by a diverse collection of artists. The folktales are performed by a diverse group of acclaimed actors who have donated their time and talents to this effort to help children in South Afria orphaned and impacted by HIV/AIDS. Together, the tales and their accompanying artwork create a patchwork of legends drawn from all over the African continent, from Morocco to Kenya to Swaziland.

If you go to the website and click on performers you get the list of the readers. Clicking on their name takes you to a profile of their history and on the side under the photo is a little link that mentions the story they are reading. If you click on it you get an audio box pop up and you can listen to a preview of the story. Alan Rickman's story has a king with multiple wives and a special ring. Ah the fanfic ideas are spinning in my head.
