An African fable - In this Xhosa fable read why the dassie or rock hyrax has no tail, but all the other animals do.
Let's Get Story Active!
* Imagine that the animals had chosen different tails from Lion.
* Draw a picture of any animal with a different type of tail, such as Giraffe with a Ostrich's tail or a Tortoise with a Monkey's tail.
- Be a word detective! Look closely at the story. Can you find: the names of four animals - five words that describe tails?
- Pretend that you are Dassie. Write a letter to the Lion asking for another chance to get a tail.
