Today we will be going through another Moroccan tale. This story explores the formation of the Sahara and is also a great reminder that lies have consequences. It shows us how little things can build up and result in big consequences. Like the saying goes "Small drops of water make a mighty ocean" or in this case, tiny grains of sand make a mighty Sahara"".

I hope you enjoy this piece of our history. Sit back and Relax, let me take you back to Africa.
