| Abstract | This book of fables from the animal kingdom contains: "The Frog Who Knew Too Much"; "Long Tail the Lizard"; "The Otter Who Went to the Bottom of the Sea"; "The Single-Wattled Cassowary and His Lethal Toe"; "The Rebel Gerbil"; "Why Hairless Monkeys Turn Out So Bad"; and "The Eagles' Watchtower." The book has been tested with elementary, middle school, and high school students and has received enthusiastic responses from these age groups as they discover new levels of meaning in the stories while enjoying the humor and fantasy. The book represents a case study of metaphor and allegory and can be used by English teachers as an introduction on how to see beyond the literalism of a text. It can also be used to build vocabulary and to explore creative writing. (NKA) |
