Each animal has been researched to give the children the opportunity to learn about the animal while enjoying the tale. This book will teach your child not only the habitat of the animal but each story has an underlying message as well. 'The Ant Tale' is a story of a 'daydreaming ant's' adventures which takes the reader through the different areas in an anthill and surroundings. It reveals how ants survive and live, all told through the story. It teaches children to do their bit in life as well. ‘A Monkey’s Tale’ tells about a chimp who is unhappy about his looks and how he uses that ‘ugly’ tail to become a hero. Every tale has a little message on it’s own. Each story is told in such a way that the children subconsciously learn the facts while they enjoy the story itself. The animals range from the tiny ant that enjoys inventions, a grumpy ‘giggling’ hyena, an overweight elephant who is unhappy about her size, a lazy giraffe and many more.
