Here is a gift for the whole family that will stir the emotions and fill the heart of all animal lovers--an anthology of animal stories that draws on tales from all over the world and across the centuries. There are myths and legends first told thousands of years ago by Inuit, Crow, Gaelic,Modoc, Norse, and other cultures that explain "How Raven Brought the Light" or how Coyote created the world as well as Man. Classic fables--such as "The Tortoise and the Hare" and "Brer Rabbit and the Tar Baby"--are mixed in with animal stories from 20th-century writers, such as Rudyard Kipling,Isaac Bashevis Singer, and Liam O'Flaherty.The book is illustrated with masterful black-and-white ink drawings. It is an impressive collection, a compassionate and thoughtful look at our relationship with the animal world, which teaches both children and adults to love and care for the creatures that share the Earth with us. An animal indexhelps readers find stories about their favorite animals.
