There is intelligent life on this planet—and some of it is four-footed! This collection of stories is surprising, sometimes funny, and always thought provoking. It will force readers of every age to realize that our human-animal bond is soul-to-soul.
A lovely collection.—Pat Cummings “Here is an elegant collection of stories and poems whose broad scope and amazing variety should keep young readers returning to this volume for inspiration and entertainment again and again.”
“I have a great fondness for folk tales, fables, fairy tales and stories that teach us something about life. Tales with Tails is an excellent collection of tales that teach the reader there are many ways to see the world. It is possible to be someone in the world who shows kindness and caring for others. There is also a humorous touch in seeing human frailties exemplified in the natural world. Let's try to see the world from another's perspective, and make it a better place!"
“How often do nine authors come together to tell animal tales? Each one a different style; each one a different theme; each one a brand new outlook. Spend an evening reading Tales with Tails and losing yourself in the world of our animal friends. You’ll never walk through the zoo in the same way again.”
“These nine tales explore the complexity of relationships between man and animal, and between animal and animal, in habitats and vernaculars both strange and familiar. From the disturbing encounter of man and polar bear to the quiet strength man draws from wolf to bolster his own humanity, the tales invite reflection and discussion on what sets us apart from one another and what binds us together.” |
