Tales of Animals: Retold Timeless Classics

In this collection of tales, you'll read about your favorite animals -- from the smallest of mice to the largest of lions. In this familiar tale from Aesop, a lion is rewarded for his act of friendship. It was a quiet night in the dark, green forest. The moon had just begun to shine through the trees. The lion had eaten a nice, big supper. And he was fast asleep at the door of his cave. He was dreaming about all kinds of good food. Suddenly, he felt something tug at his mane. "What's this?" he growled sleepily. He pulled up his paw. There was a tiny brown mouse!
