In this 311th issue of the Baba Indaba’s Children's Stories series, Baba Indaba narrates the Fairy Tale "THE CUNNING CRANE AND THE CRAB”.

ONCE upon a time, long, long ago and far, far away, a number of fish lived in a little pool. It was all very well while there was regular rainfall; but when summer came, and it began to be very hot, the water dried up and the water level got lower and lower, until there was hardly enough to cover the fish.

Now not far away there was a beautiful lake, always fresh and cool; for it lay under the shadow of great trees, and it was covered all over with water-lilies. And a Crane lived on the banks of this lake.

The Crane used to eat fish, when he could catch any; and one day, coming to the little pool, he saw all the fish gasping in it, and thought of a neat trick to get hold of them without trouble.

What was the trick the crane thought of? Do you think the fish believed all the crane had to say? Just where does the crab come into the story? Well to find the answers to these questions, and others you may have, you will have to download and read this story to find out!

Baba Indaba is a fictitious Zulu storyteller who narrates children's stories from around the world. Baba Indaba translates as "Father of Stories".

Each issue also has a "WHERE IN THE WORLD - LOOK IT UP" section, where young readers are challenged to look up a place on a map somewhere in the world. The place, town or city is relevant to the story. HINT - use Google maps.

33% of the profit from the sale of this book will be donated to charities.
INCLUDES LINKS TO DOWNLOAD 8 FREE STORIES
