Help needed!
On the Saturday, December 6th broadcast, a reference was make to a book. Something about Proverbs around the world. It was said to have elephants on the cover and the poverb: when two elephabts tussle, the grass if the only one to suffer... Does anyone know the correct title and author?
Thanks,
Staci

Staci, the book is David Crystal's As They Say in Zanzibar. Thinking of it as a gift?

The book's a lot of fun, Staci. I think you'll enjoy it. It's a surprisingly thick volume, btw.
