Carnivores who become vegetarian, worms who keep their word, elephants who long to be slim... Meet these fascinating animals who are not very different from us humans. Lively stories that entertain and teach determination, perseverance, integrity, friendship, kindness, sacrifice and the importance of being onself. A read aloud book for tiny tots.
To say these are my stories would be partially true. This was my dtream. A few wonderful people in the world made this dream possible. I would like to thank them.
I place on record my debt to the well-know and well-loved stories of the Panchatantra and other such unmatchable collections of animal stories.
