Editing Anansi (section)

====How Anansi's hind became big, and how his head became small====

In this story, a famine came to Anansi's village and he told them he was going to search for food.<ref name="rattray" />{{rp|66–70}} He then embarked on a search and arrived at a stream being drained by spirits in the form of humans. Anansi observed the spirits were using their skulls to remove water from the river, and when they noticed him, the spirits asked if they could remove his so that he could help. Anansi obliged and began helping them remove water from the stream. 

While they drained the water, the spirits sang about their deeds and Anansi liked the song so much he asked if he could sing it, and they allowed him. Eventually the water was drained and the spirits gave Anansi his share of food and restored his skull, warning him not to sing the song again or it would fall off. Anansi agreed that he wouldn't but later heard the spirits singing and broke his promise, only for his skull to fall apart. Anansi whined to spirits and they repaired his skull after he explained himself, but the spirits told Anansi they wouldn't help him again if he sang it another time. Anansi made another promise not to.

However, Anansi heard the spirits singing elsewhere and sang the song anyway, which caused his skull to fall apart. Before it could hit the ground, Anansi caught his skull with his rear-end and fled in embarrassment.
