Like all folktales, this is a story which speaks from the ages, to all ages, cultures and ethnicities. The lessons the Hyena brings to the reader and listener is universal in perspective and appeal. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Because of those elements, the Hyena, immediately found a space in my repertoire and became a favorite of young and elder audiences. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Once, I presented The Greedy Hyena in a storytelling residency. Some of the children, who participated, acted out the various parts of the story. From that experience came the idea of putting the story in book form. I spoke to many illustrators and viewed their renderings but it was Kianga's folk art that matched the visions I saw in my head. For me, her images captured the energy and boldness of the African plains and expressed a text, that I tried to make fun, beyond the capacity of my feeble imagination. Her artistic genius makes this book truly a \"work of Art \" \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Along with making the story funny, I tried to make the text fun for the listener and the reader, as well. So, have fun with all the sple q djkrq'ajre words and create a few of your own, if you wish. Hyena would like that. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e I thank you, in advance, for purchasing \u003cb\u003eThe Greedy Hyena\u003c\/b\u003e.
