Counts reflect the Atlas catalogue. A link may represent a recording, a publication or an association with a local tradition.
In Mozambique’s first Atlas record, a field is both a source of food for animals and a crop a family wants to protect. Maize and peanuts set the story in motion in African Storybook’s 2019 English edition. Hélder de Paz Alexandre’s illustrations follow Rabbit from the field to the house and the muddy path.
