Episode 17: 17a. The Calabash Children


Listen Later

This week I'm bringing you a story from Tanzania! 'The Calabash Kids' is the perfect story for Mother's Day because it is about a woman who becomes a mother in a rather unsual way. This story originates from the Chagga people who live in northern Tanzania and was adapted by children's author Alan Sheppard.

To learn more about Tanzania and its history and culture, listen to Episode 16.b. Let's Learn About Tanzania!
