In this first of the series, the four stories are 'How the Goat Became our Friend'; 'How the Hawk and the Crow Came to Hate Each Other'; 'How the Beans Came to Have a Black Sport on Them'; and 'How the Leopard Got His Spots', and 'How the Hyena Got an Ugly Coat'. Each story is illustrated with adrawing.
