"I AM NOT AFRAID!"
By Kenny Mann
A Bank Street Ready-to-Read Book,
Level 2/Bantam Books 1993
This is an early reader for children ages three and up who are on their way to reading independently but who may need help. The story is a retelling of a Maasai folktale about how a young warrior teaches his younger brother to have courage. Richly illustrated with original drawings, the book affords readers a glimpse into both the culture and the landscape of the Maasai people of East Africa, while simultaneously addressing some universal issues of childhood.
