LJ Donnell of Common Ground reads an African fairy tale "Mufaro's Beautiful Daughters." Mufaro has two lovely, worthy daughters. One is ill-tempered and self-centered, one is kind and loving. When the king sends a message throughout the land requesting that every worthy woman come before him so that he might choose a bride, the sisters go to see if they will become Queen.
