Meh. I have read better and I have read worse. The stories themselves are interesting but the style of storytelling not so much. (

How the foo got its baa stories from Africa. Fun and quick to read, surprisingly gory in places (these are pray animals, there is clawing out of stomachs and cubs being snatched from their mother and eaten) (
