The creature capable of throwing a spear high enough in the air for him to count to ten before it reaches the ground will be declared the jungle’s prince.
After many of the strongest animals fail, an antelope steps forth to take the king’s challenge, only to be ridiculed for his physical weakness. But the antelope possesses a different kind of strength―one that’s a perfect quality for leadership. 4aIndividuality 4aChildren's Literature 4aMyths, Fables or Tales 4aMath for kids 4aAfrican Tales
