Twenty-eight stories – by our most distinguished children’s writers as well as talented newcomers – reflecting the multi-faceted Southern African society. The vivid full-colour illustrations present an exciting collection of art by eleven South African artists, including Mel Todd, Nikki Jones, Joan Rankin, Cora Coetzee, Ann Walton and Zwelethu Mthethwa. The cover design is by Zwelethu Mthethwa, whose work has become internationally known and respected since the first edition of the book in 1993.
Stories South of the Sun is a microcosm of words and pictures which will be of lasting value to every child.
