With a lively cast of characters and all the rich colors of West
Africa, children's author Joan Kelly retells a classic tale of
friendship and giving in How the Leopard Got His Spots, the second
title in her "Let Me Tell You an African Tale" series. For parents
and teachers who enjoy sharing culturally significant and brightly
illustrated stories with today's youth, this fable offers heritage,
tradition, and magic. Deep in the lush forest, Leopard is not at
all content with how he looks. He wants to add some pizzazz to his
plain yellow coat, so when his friend Tortie the Tortoise suggests
he go see Peacock, he leaps at the idea. Once Leopard arrives at
Peacock's he realizes that his not having spots is the least of
their worries. Peacock is in a bit of a fix, which provides Leopard
a chance to be a good citizen. Kindness brings kindness in
return-just ask the leopard; it's how he got his spots.
