The Small Five (Paperback)
Everybody has heard of Africa's "big five" animals (Lion, Leopard, Buffalo, Rhino, and Elephant) but not many people know the "small five." In this story, when one group is pitted against the other in a battle of wit and skills, Doodlebug, Beetle, Weaver Bird, Tortoise, and Shrew all show they're as good as their big rivals!
Ralph Johnstone was brought up on a traditional fishing boat in Singapore before moving to Africa. Working with a Kenyan Safari children's club he learned all about the "Small Five" animals. He works as an editor and corporate writer.
