The Generous Rabbit and other animal stories

Review also includes:

Why Dogs Chase Cats… and other animal stories, 978-0745946962

These two collections of folk tales retold by Hartman are just the right length for reading aloud at the end of the school day – or maybe they could be bedtime stories, or perhaps stories that newly confident readers could read on their own. Both books contain eight stories from different parts of the world, with different animals each time. They are told with humour and in a straightforward style with pictures on most pages. Hartman includes a useful list of sources at the back of the books. More, please!
