Bob Hartman is well known as a storyteller who captures children's imagination and keep them spellbound. In this collection he blends familar stories with little-known tales. There are retellings from sources as diverse as La Fontaine, Aesop, Uncle Remus, and folk tales and legends from around the world. Yet this is more than just a collection of animal stories - most of the appealing retellings have been selected because of their implicit moral teaching or positive values.
