Abstract: en_US This is one of a boxed set of 30 fable books by Usborne, 32 pages in length, 5" x 7¾". This booklet is on the second level. The back cover identifies it as a Native American folk tale. Bear originally had a large and beautiful tail. He did not like it but the other animals admired it. Fox felt envious because it was more beautiful than his own tail. He tricked Bear into the well-known fable ploy of ice-fishing with his tail. Half-frozen Bear sneezed, pulled away from his tail, looked at his new short tail, and liked it. This happy ending is rather unusual for a fable! The booklet finishes with puzzles and answers.
