In this entertaining and educational paper doll collection Yuko Green has scrupulously researched and meticulously rendered 32 traditional African tribal costumes for two charming dolls. The diminutive Simba can be dressed in the brightly colored costumes of a Swazi warrior, a Zulu dancer of South Africa, a Massai nomad and a Senegal village sorcerer, among other figures, while wide-eyed Neema is ready to model colorful garments such as those worn by an Ndebele woman of Zimbabwe, a Herero woman of Botswana, and a Samboru woman of Kenya. Accompanied by splendid representations of headdresses, masks and other tribal artifacts, the costume collection can be used as a classroom teaching aid, but will also captivate paper doll enthusiasts, costume designers and anyone interested in the cultural aspects of African tribal life.
