In issue 125 of the Baba Indaba Children's Stories, Baba Indaba narrates the amazing tale Tom, abear, which lived in Paris. In about the 1830's, a well-known artist named Alexandre-Gabriel Décamps lived in Paris. He was the intimate friend of some of the finest authors, artists, and scientific men of the day, and was devotedly fond of animals of all sorts. He loved to paint them, and he kept quite a small ménagerie in his studio where a bear, a monkey, a tortoise, and a frog lived (more or less) in peace and harmony together.
The bear's name was 'Tom,' the monkey was called 'Jacko I.,' the frog was 'Mademoiselle Camargo,' and the tortoise 'Gazelle.' ........We invite you to download and read the extraordinary story of Tom, the bear...............
INCLUDES LINKS TO DOWNLOAD 8 FREE 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, on map. HINT - use Google maps.
Baba Indaba is a fictitious Zulu storyteller who narrates children's stories from around the world. Baba Indaba translates as "Father of Stories".
It is believed that folklore and tales are believed to have originated in India and made their way overland along the Silk and Spice routes and through Central Asia before arriving in Europe. Even so, this does not cover all folklore from all four corners of the world. Indeed folklore, legends and myths from Africa, Australia, Polynesia, and some from Asia too, are altogether quite different and seem to have originated on the whole from separate reservoirs of lore, legend and culture.
