Reading Notes: Tiny Tales from India A

 - Main animals seen: lions, jackals, elephant, monkey, crocodile, camels, leopard, rabbit, birds, donkey, cat, otter

- The ending of many of these stories involves some animal dying because they were foolish or escaping death because they were wiser

- Both of the stories 8 and 9 remind me of Tarzan

- One thing that I have observed is that they lion seems to be outsmarted a bit or is the ruler of every animal

- Jackals are common in these stories and seem to be the one to outsmart everyone else

- The stories largely revolve around food sources and eating 

- Sometimes the story explains the message other times we have to figure it 

- Many of the stories are centered around some sort of "king" 

- A combination of 3 or 2 animals that teach each other a lesson or "fight"
