The story, copyrighted in 2014 by the African Storybook Initiative, grants freedom for commercial use, adaptation, and addition, provided the copyright and credits are maintained. The narrative begins with a happy family that never fought and always helped their parents. However, they were made of wax and were forbidden to go near fire, performing all their tasks during the night. Despite this, one of the boys harbored a strong desire to experience the sunlight. The story is presented as a fictional narrative with a focus on a unique family's circumstances and a child's longing for the forbidden. The illustrations are by Wiehan de Jager, adding a visual dimension to the tale. The text explicitly states the characters are made of wax, necessitating their nocturnal activities and creating a central conflict for one of the children. The story appears to be a folktale adapted for children, exploring themes of curiosity, restriction, and the natural world.","Children of wax  \nWriter: Southern African Folktale Illustration: Wiehan de Jager  \nEnglish Story Book  \nChildren of wax  \nWriter: Southern African Folktale Illustration: Wiehan de Jager  \nEnglish  \nChildren of wax  \nWriter: Southern African Folktale  \nIllustration: Wiehan de Jager  \nCopyright © 2014, African Storybook Initiative  \nYou are free to make commercial use of this work.
