Editorial reviews

The vocal performance of the menagerie of animals who reside in "The Rabbit Who Overcame Fear" and "The Hunter and the Quail" will delight children and adults alike. A galumphing rhinoceros, a goofy elephant, and various others are fooled by the unfounded fears of a scared little rabbit; and a flock of birds learns about the importance of cooperation when threatened by a hunter’s net. These short fables from India teach important lessons while providing entertaining stories complete with fun sound effects and music that kids can relate too.

Publisher's Summary

The Rabbit Who Overcame Fear is a story about recognizing fear and speaks of invoking knowledge. The Hunter and the Quail is about cooperation.
