TODDLER’S FAIRY TALES
TODDLER’S FAIRY TALES
I have noticed toddlers have a special attraction for stories where animals play major roles. They love to hear animals speak and behave like we human beings. Keeping this in mind I have selected this story for Toddler’s Fairy Tales. This story was composed by my father and I have grown up hearing this story again and again. Hence, I thought of sharing it with those parents and grandparents who are always in search of new stories for their little ones.
