![]() ![]() I'm surprised by that now because there are very, very little similarities between the two. *I forgot as I was reading Sundiata, that this story was the inspiration for the Disney movie The Lion King. ![]() I probably would have enjoyed it a bit better if I could have taken my time, but most likely I wouldn't have rated it higher than a 2.5 anyway. ![]() It was assigned reading for my Humanities class and we were only given two days to read it. It was especially difficult keeping up because I was really just skimming through it. When Sogolon and her son are exiled, though, I thought the story became kind of complicated and there were too many people being introduced all at once (most of them being rather inconsequential). I was most interested in the first half of the book, when Sogolon (Sundiata's mother) is first introduced and the sections that talked about Sundiata's childhood. I enjoyed some aspects of the book, such as the magic/folktales. ![]()
