They later moved to the United States, and Erick Berry went on to become a well known children's book illustrator as well as an author. Both she and her husband wrote books about Africa; in addition to this book of African folktales, Berry is also the author of Girls in Africa, and she did the illustrations for her husband's book, Garram the Hunter: A Boy of the Hill Tribes, a novel also set in Nigeria. - Summary by Laura Gibbs
