Beschreibung

The lazy leopard wants to share the jungle feast but does not want to help to prepare it. Some food is stolen from the feast, making the other animals very angry! Practice doing lots of counting with the animals as they solve the mystery of the naughty thief! "The Story of the Leopard's Spots" is a folktale from Ghana, a country in Africa. Leopards have beautiful spotted coats, so it is hard to see them in the jungle. But the Ashanti people in Ghana do not think that leopards were always spotted! They believe that there was a time when leopards had no spots. Instead, their fur was many shades of gold and amber that shone gold in the sunbeams that shine between the jungle trees. "The Story of the Leopard's Spots" tells us how Leopards got their spots! This book teaches the counting of 1 to 5. CAMathories Company has published a series of Folktale Mathematics(TM) books that teach mathematics in a fun and engaging way using folktales from different parts of the world. "The Story of the Leopard's Spots" is the second book of the Second Series of Folktale Mathematics(TM) "Keep Counting 1 to 5".
