Uncle Remus & Friends by HARRIS, Joel Chandler

Uncle Remus, that genial old storyteller, knows how to spin these wonderful tales about the criteers that the little 6 year old boy (and many of us adults!) love to listen to. Yet the Brer Rabbit and Brer Fox and the others sound a lot like the people all around us. They tell stories about personalities and faults and virtues in a way that is unique to Uncle Remus. As the shadows grow longer outside, draw up a rocking chair next to the little boy, settle back and listen to the wise old man tell these stories. These 17 stories were specially chosen from Uncle Remus: His Songs and Sayings and include The Wonderful Tar-Baby Story, Miss Cow falls a Victim to Mr. Rabbit; Mr. Fox and the Deceitful Frogs; Mr. Rabbit grossly deceives Mr. Fox and lots of others.
