Gerald McDermott is one of the most awesome illustrators ever. I remember this book (also, Anansi the Spider!) from elementary school- not only because of the story, but the amazing, bold and colorful geometric illustrations! They have stuck with me all my life. I highly recommend this book. It is a classic!
