How to save your tail
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
How to Save your Tail was a charming, funny story relating the adventures of Bob the Rat as he tells long tales to escape becoming lunch for two ravenous cats. The story is reminiscent of the Arabian Nights where storytelling is used to escape one's fate. See how many twisted fairy tales you can recognize! Fun drawings and Bob's family tree are included. Recommended for boys and girls, Grades 2-5, with high reading level. Good read aloud for anyone!
Excellent Read Aloud for Classrooms!

A wonderful and creative twist on the traditional fairy tales children are familiar with. Packed with colorful characters that captivate the young and older children alike. Having read this book to 4th and 5th graders it is proven to entertain and leave the students wanting more! For those who enjoy creating "voices" for their characters this book is a definite must. Enjoy!
Absolutely Captivating!

Guaranteed to capture the minds and imaginations of your children. This is a collection of wonderful short tales as told by Bob, the cookie-baking rat, in his clever effort to stave off two very hungry cats... The stories are short enough to keep the attention of toddlers and allow for breaks... oh yes, did I mention the cookie breaks? Another wonderful work by children's author Mary Hanson!
