(4) K-3 In this simple, somewhat stilted retelling, Watts effectively communicates the moral: even the small can help the strong, and the strong can return the favor. The soft, busy, childlike illustrations of jungle scenes complement the story adequately, and young listeners may enjoy identifying the various animals.
