Theplot cleverly shows how promises made without honesty can lead to trouble\, and how chaos can result when everyone’s fears and differences are ignored. The story ends with a resolution\, where Anansi apologises and learns the values of honesty and kindness. \n  \nSTORY TWO:    June 13th\, 11am\, 12pm\, & 1pm \nAnansi and the Itching Village (an original written by Zinse Agginie). \nSelfishness\, jealousy and greed are the main themes of this story.
