Mufaro’s Beautiful Daughters / Las Bellas Hijas de Mufaro

Yoto Says: A modern classic that will enchant any listener. This memorable retelling of Cinderella is perfect for introducing children to the fairy tale as well as the history, culture, and geography of the African nation of Zimbabwe. Inspired by a traditional African folktale, this is the story of Mufaro, who is proud of his two beautiful daughters. Nyasha is kind and considerate, but everyone—except Mufaro—knows that Manyara is selfish and bad-tempered. When the Great King decides to take a wife and invites the most worthy and beautiful daughters in the land to appear before him, Mufaro brings both of his daughters—but only one can be queen. Who will the king choose? Tracks included: Mufaro's Beautiful Daughters Las Bellas Hijas de Mufaro
