Abstract
Here, on 23 stiff cardboard pages, are four stories about animals with names: The Cygnet and the Stork, The Hippo and the Cheetah, The Hyena and the Lion, and The Tiger and the Monkey. Happy endings, sharing, apologizing, creative thinking, and laughing are the name of the game here. In a clever twist, Harriet the hippo outruns Flash the cheetah because she can run underwater in a more direct line to the goal. Sunny the monkey, threatened by reports of the coming of Stripes the tiger, is clever enough to drop so many banana peels that the tiger cannot get traction and hunts elsewhere. The book's cover has a square cut-out, so that we see immediately Downy, the crying cygnet who graces the page that serves both as title-page and as T of C.
