    About this ebook

    .....The Koskos people once again called the Maasai elders to them and said “Go get us a guard full of fleas and bring it here immediately! That is the only way you will save your skins! for if you do not your fate is sealed.” The elders immediately departed and went home dejected. “Where on earth can we ever hope to get enough fleas to fill a whole guard?" They loudly lamented between them, "This is surely an impossible condition to meet!”
