A rare tale from "Island Folk Stories from the Indian Ocean" by Sita Seecharrun Harris. It is inspired by the country loving folks of Timor Leste who fought for their independence with bare hands, so to say. They believe in the legend, folk tale and myth that Timor Leste is in fact a large crocodile. Lafaik is Crocodile in the local spoken language Tetum. Storytelling is part of the culture and lore of the island.
Immerse yourself in this beautiful folk story and retell it to others. It spells big story time with the children and the family when you get this to watch on YouTube.
