A Twist in the Tail Animal Stories from Around the World

In this delightful anthology Mary Hoffman collects and retells ten animal tales from around the world, ranging from the Caribbean to Cape Verde, and Malaysia to Nigeria, and bringing in an equally varied cast of characters from tigers, rabbits and bears to dogs, spiders and foxes.

Ormerod uses a vibrant palette of purples and yellows, vivid oranges and lush greens, full of expression, character and movement to capture the liveliness of the animals and bring a new freshness to this collection of popular, multicultural tales.
