Ananse and the Monkeys

Ananse needs some money to buy food so makes some hats to sell but on his way to the market, some monkeys steal them! Can Ananse outwit the monkeys to get his precious hats back?

Ananse's family is hungry and he needs to make some money fast so he can buy food. Ananse has a very useful skill - he can sew. He decides to make some hats to sell, but on his way to the market some curious monkeys steal his hats while he snoozes under a tree. How will Ananse get his hats back?

Musicians from the BBC Philharmonic are joined by storyteller Jan Blake and multi-instrumentalist Sidiki Dembélé to share this funny, musical story from the Caribbean.
