Sometimes old memories come fl ooding back into one’s mind with nostalgic eff ect.One day my brain felt like a giant elephant as I hummed old songs and rhymesthat dated as far back as my days in nursery school. My native country Tanzaniawas preoccupying me. I felt the urge to share these wonderful childhood memories.It was time to show my gratitude to all my teachers who made my school days ajoy to remember and also to share the gift of memory with all the children in thisuniverse.Th is book consists of nursery rhymes, songs and 20 Swahili folk tales translated intoEnglish. Th e stories were written and submitted by school children from ManunduPrimary School in my hometown Korogwe. In Tanzania, oral lore is a commontradition of transmitting stories from one generation to another. I did not wish tosee this knowledge get lost but get preserved in a form of written book. Th e nurseryrhymes, songs and animal facts were contributed by me. Th ese were inspired bymemories from my school time experiences and also a wish to instill children with anappreciation for the wild animals, especially those belonging to the List of Th reatenedAnimals.For every child who wishes to explore their wild and fun side, just fl ick throughthe pages of this book and get acquainted with the Swahili folklore and Tanzanianwildlife. Tanzania warmly welcomes you. 'Karibu sana!'
