How can a camel overcome her shyness at a talent show? Meet a greedy monkey and cheating hedgehogs, a talking bear and a runaway donkey. Discover stories of friendship and kindness, and the power of a nightingale's song in these engaging retellings of ten animal stories from around the world. Each story begins with a short phrase that encapsulates the message and then is retold with humour and liveliness. The stories are designed to be read as individual episodes in just five minutes each - perfect for bedtime or reading to a group of children. John Bendall-Brunello's fun illustrations bring the wit and energy of these much-loved stories alive with lots to explore and engage a child's imagination.
