Konte Chameleon, Fine, Fine Fine!

This is an illustrated children's book that retells a traditional West African folktale about why the chameleon never hurries.

 

 

Review from BOOKSHELF for Young Readers, Los Angeles Times ...more reviews
The best picture books are those that match compelling stories with dynamic illustrations. It's a rare combination, but it's one to be found in Konte Chameleon, Fine, Fine Fine! ... Kessler's retelling makes such good use of odd, lyric sounds and repetitve language that it's almost impossible not to read - or sing - the story aloud.
