Legend of the St. Ann's Flood


Book Description

No one ever knew the cause of the deadly flood that hit St Ann's, Trinidad in 1993 - no one, that is, until a frightened boy named Jabari came stumbling out of the St Ann's hills with a legend given to him by Papa Bois, the king of the forest. Rescued from the clutches of Mama Dlo, the anaconda who is queen of the rivers, Jabari was given the task of telling people the real story of the flood.

Book Description
