Review of The Tiger and the Wise Man

How wise is a wise man who lets himself be tricked by a hungry tiger? Faced with becoming breakfast, the wise man calls on animals in the trees to intervene and save him from the tiger’s jaws. But he finds that nature, tormented in so many ways by mankind, has little interest in saving human skin and he is left to his fate by all except a passing Jackal. Rescue by a Jackal may not be the safest option either, so who is the wisest of all creatures? This retelling of a traditional Indian tale is a great ten minute read for under eight-year-olds.
