Description

Inspired by traditional folktales from around the world, this volume in the Animal Stories for Bedtime series features fantastical, mesmerizing tales about how different forest animals came to resemble the species that we know today.

Told over generations, often around campfires in the dead of night, these tales come from many cultures around the world. Whether beginning in the forests of Africa, America, Australia, or Europe, the stories in this book go back a long way, but here they are retold with new twists and turns for the bedtimes of today. This collection contains eight engaging stories including “How the Frog Became King of the Marshes,” “Why Owls Stare,” and “Why Dogs Became Our Friends.” They mix humor, suspense, a few scares, and charming full-color artwork to irresistible effect.>hr
