Nigerian-British author and traditional storyteller Atinuke conjures up the sights, sounds and atmosphere of life in Africa.

You will meet her main characters, Oluwalase Babatunde Benson, from The No 1. Car Spotter, and Anna Hibiscus, and hear tales that are not only centuries old, but have travelled across continents to reach you.

Born in Nigeria, Atinuke grew up in both Africa and the UK, and is now a professional storyteller living in Wales. Her first book, Anna Hibiscus, was published in October 2007, and was inspired by the Africa of her childhood.

Atinuke also appears at 2pm.
