Abstract

en_US
Here are four stories: “The Jackal and the Drum”; “The Most Dangerous Animal”; “Two Snakes and the Princess”; and “The Donkey’s Song.” 7½” x 9¼”. There are four other Panchatantra titles in this series, along with some 15 other books. The first story is told slightly differently from what I have usually heard. The drum is part of a military camp, and the jackal comes to believe that it is the storage place for their food. He finally hits it hard with a club and then laughs at himself for being scared of something. I ask myself: Might not the soldiers hear that kind of boom? The second story features a poor Brahmin finding four creatures trapped in a well. From there the familiar story goes its way. The tiger, the ape, and the snake stand by the man, while the human being proves to be the most dangerous. One of the snakes in the third story lives inside the prince’s stomach. The silly donkey sings out of gratitude to a jackal for showing him a field of cucumbers that they visit every evening.
