Peek-a-boo into the book:

The jungle and all its animals are all set for the ultimate festival that weaves magic with stories, spoken word, poetry and song. On the stage are the first set of storytellers – the lion, the monkey and the tortoise on day one. The lovely illustrations of the Panchatantra stories had our kids all excited about this book.

Back in the jungle, admits all these stories, Ostroo the Ostrich asked: “C-c-can I tell a story too?" Ostroo could not speak without stammering. So, the moderator of the festival, the squirrel and the other animals made fun of him and asked him to stop and just be the audience. When Eli and Meli saw the teary eyes of the Ostroo, they tried to cheer him up with a happy song.

To everyone's great surprise Ostroo sang it without stammering! The confident Ostroo did not wait further. He sang his story WITHOUT stammering at the storytelling festival. Amused and shocked, each one of them in the audience gave him a thunderous applause!

"The storytelling gift is innate: one has it or one doesn't. But style is at least partly a learned thing: one refines it by looking and listening and reading and practice – by work." – Donna Tartt

So, we are saying:

  • We danced, we hopped, we sang, we did lots of storytelling with this cute picture book. So, do not wait further to get your kids this fun read.
