Some of the folktales in this book, published in 1925, are stories that Baskerville heard herself, while other stories she adapted from the Baganda folktales collected by Apollo Kaggwa [1864–1927]. You will find origin stories here, like the origin of the flame tree and of the flowers called "Nsangi's tears." There are fairy tales like "The Buffalo Maiden" and "The River Fairy." The main trickster character is the hare (rabbit), as in the story of "The Elephant That Wanted to Dance" and The Hare Who Earned a Cow and a Chieftainship." Some of the stories are connected with proverbs, like "The Absent-minded Bridegroom" and "The Quits of Gomba," and there are riddles in the story of "The Holy Man."
