"'Why the Crocodile does not eat the Hen' from Notes on the folklore of the Fjort (French Congo) " The story of the Crocodile and the Hen is a classic. This book shows how brains over bronze wins any day. This book I would recommend for ages 2-7, it teaches about thinking outside of the box and outsmarting your opponent. I would recommend that parents read this book to their kids, there is a short synopsis of what the story is about in the beginning of the book to tell the reader what the book is about. This type of feature is very conviet for those parent who read a book before sharing it with their children Another feature is the author's note at the end of the book as well as a short history of J.Leau, the author, and her qualifications for writing this book. Crocodile really wants to eat hen, but every time he goes to she calls him brother and that makes him not want to eat her. He is so puzzled about why Hen keeps calling him brother, so he goes to as the Wise Old Woman. Before he can get to her he runs into Lizard, Lizard explains that they both lay eggs, so that is what makes them brother and sister. Crocodile is satisfied with this answer so he goes to find hen and they live happy. A crocodile decides to eat a hen several times. The hen went down by the river to look for food and water. This hen was big and smart. When the crocodile opened his mouth to eat this hen, the hen said “My brother, don’t eat me.” This clever hen made the crocodile confuse. How does a crocodile become a hen’s brother? It’s so weird. This tale helps children understand that a small animals can survive when they know how to defend and respond to difficult situations. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
