Description - Anansi and the Tug O' War by Bobby Norfolk
Anansi the trickster spider is back to his old tricks once again in this classic African folktale. Anansi must use his brainpower to teach Elephant and Whale to respect smaller creatures. He challenges both Elephant and Whale to a tug o' war, but they don't realize that they are actually pulling against each other and not Anansi. In the end, both stubborn animals are so tired that they give up when Anansi asks them who is the strongest animal and he declares himself the winner of the tug o' war. In this battle of wits, brains definitely outdo brawn. This trickster tale from Africa will teach readers the importance of courage, resourcefulness and respect.
