Msimulizi 2: The Green Dragon Mark McKnight

Giants, geniuses, spiders, pop stars, the biggest cake in the world, drummers, dancers, singers and a precious few normal children. These are some of the many individuals you will meet throughout the pages of Msimulizi 2: The Green Dragon. As is Msimulizi (the storyteller) is walking through Gaba village and on up along Kawuku Road, as you read these stories, you too will meet the children of Gaba and watch the long sunset down over beautiful Lake Victoria. In this second book of stories written for the Mwangaza Children's Choir, Mark McKnight has once again woven a tapestry of tales of the authentic Africa: you can almost smell the charcoal stoves cooking fresh matooke, hear the crackle of fish drying in the sun and feel the rust red dirt between your toes.
