Description
[Animal Tales]
Animal Tales is a collection of short stories based on real events.
In Animal Tales you will find out about the crocodile that made friends with Chito, a Costa Rican fisherman; a pigeon that saved many soldiers’ lives; and a fierce man-eating tiger.
You will also read about a wandering hippo; a chimpanzee that learned to communicate with humans; and a war between the Australian army and giant birds.
[Animal Tales 2]
In this book, you'll read about Unsinkable Sam, a cat that survived three shipwrecks; and Lulu, a pot-bellied pig that saved her owner from certain death. You'll also learn about Elephant Bill and his amazing escape from Burma in World War II; and a baboon that got a job as a signal man on the South African railways. You will also meet Hachiko, the most famous dog in Japan; and Old Tom, a killer whale that befriended and helped fishermen in Australia a hundred years ago.
