In the first story, the tiger, which lives in the jungle, is hungry. He starts looking for food but finds it hard to come by. He is so hungry that even a frog will do for dinner thinking that he will catch the biggest, fattest frog. He arrives at the pond and sees many frogs. When they see the tiger many take refuge in the pond, except for one who sits on a lily pad in the middle of the pond. A conversation follows?? Can you guess what was said? Did the tiger get to eat the frog for his dinner? Well, you will have to download and read the story to find out. In our second story, The Story Of The Donkey And The Rock which is a Black Tent Story. A man was walking up a steep hill, trading oil from house to house. Halfway up he was tired and sat down to rest. He placed the jar of oil on a rock beside him. At the same time another man was driving his donkey down the same hill. As the donkey passed, part of the load on the donkey?s back knocked over and broke the jar of oil and the oil trader was understandably annoyed. Well, what happened? Did the pair agree it was an accident and agree to go their own ways or did something else happen? To find the answer to this question, and any others you may have, you will have to download and read this story to find out!

Book Description
It is found among the old, old histories of the Tibetans that a female demon living among the mountains in Northern India mated with a monkey from the forests of Tibet, and from this union sprang the Tibetan race of people. The greater part of their literature is of a sacred nature, telling of their creation, of the formation of the world, of Buddha and his miraculous birth and death, of his reincarnations and the revisions of his teachings. A kind of almanac, a little astronomy, plans for casting a horoscope, and many books filled with religious teachings and superstitions, including the worship of devils and demons, are about all that can be found. The 49 little stories in this book are told as the people sit around their boiling tea made over a three stone camp-fire. They are handed down from father to son, from mother to daughter, and though often filled with their superstitious beliefs, through them all run a vein of humor and the teachings of a moral truth which is quite unexpected. These tales were gathered by Dr. A. L. Shelton on his trips among the Tibetans, around their camp-fires at night, and in their black tents high up in the mountains. Every country has its folk-lore tales that have always been a joy and pleasure to the children, not only of their own land, but of other lands as well. May these stories add a little to this pleasure and enjoyment everywhere, in whatsoever tongue they may be translated or in whatever land they may be read. Flora Beal Shelton 1925

Book Description
Excerpt from Folk Tales From Tibet: With Illustrations by a Tibetan Artist, and Some Verses From Tibetan Love-Songs Collected and Translated In presenting these little stories to the public, it may perhaps be of interest if I describe how I came by them. During two years spent in Tibet, at Gyantse, Lhasa, and elsewhere, I have made many friends amongst all classes of Tibetans - high and low, rich and poor - and have conversed with all sorts of persons upon all sorts of topics. In the course of my wanderings I learned that there exists amongst this fascinating and little-known people a wealth of folk-lore, hitherto inaccessible to the outside world, and I made efforts to collect as many of their stories as I could. For certain special reasons this quest proved more difficult than I had anticipated. In the first place, I found that many of the best known stories had been imported bodily from India or China, and possess but little of that local colouring which is one of the chief charms of folk-lore. Secondly, some of the very best and most characteristic stories are unfit for publication in such a book as this.

Book Description
“Students of folk-lore have in this work a store of interesting material gathered together from a comparatively new source, and communicated to the writer by village headmen, monks, servants, peasants and traders resident in Tibet. The difficulty attending the collection of the stories, a difficult task at any time, was enhanced by the shyness and reluctance of the simple folk interviewed by Captain O'Connor, but with tact, and every sign of friendliness, he was able to obtain numerous interesting specimens of the folk-lore of that fascinating and little known country— which were written down as he heard them, and translated as accurately as possible from the Tibetan idiom into ours. Captain O'Connor spent two years in Tibet, at Gyantse, Lhasa and other places, and had therefore many opportunities of carrying on his researches. As to the origin or scientific bearing of the stories he does not express an opinion, except to point out that some of the stories he heard had been imported bodily from India or China and therefore possess but little of that local colouring which is one of the chief charms of folk-lore. The writer has added to the stories a few verses taken at random from popular Tibetan love songs which show the genuine poetic sentiment which is found amongst the inhabitants of this strange country. The pictures which appear throughout the work are the maiden effort at book illustration of a Tibetan artist, and therefore of peculiar interest.” —Journal of the Royal Colonial Institute “We have an interesting literary result of the opening of south-western Tibet from Captain O'Connor, the British trade-agent at Gyantse. He spent the long dark evenings of his winter exile in collecting stories from the lips of the peasantry around his post, and now gives us a translation of about a score of these in a dainty volume illustrated with twelve coloured pictures by a native draughtsman. The tales are of the Aesop's fable type, the chief characters being the hare, tiger, lion, fox, monkey and crow. Some of them are not new and some are clearly derived from Indian sources. Captain O'Connor would confer a favour on lovers of folklore if in taking advantage of his exceptional opportunities to collect these tales he would confine himself to such as are of a purely indigenous origin ; and in regard to songs, of which he gives eight verses, would supply more precise renderings instead of free paraphrases.” —The Saturday Review, Volume 102.

Baba Indaba translates as "Father of Stories". ÿ It is believed that folklore and tales are believed to have originated in India and made their way overland along the Silk and Spice routes and through Central Asia before arriving in Europe. Even so, this does not cover all folklore from all four corners of the world. Indeed folklore, legends and myths from Africa, Australia, Polynesia, and some from Asia too, are altogether quite different and seem to have originated on the whole from separate reservoirs of lore, legend and culture.
