Quando gli animali non avevano la coda

by Roveda Anselmo, Civardi Elisabetta
Quando gli animali non avevano la coda

A long time ago, animals had no tail. But it was a big problem: the dog could not wag his tail to the master, the fox could not make himself beautiful, the horse could not chase flies away… So one day the lion gathered his subjects and distributed tails to everyone. The first ones received the best tails, the last ones…

A tale of African tradition reinterpreted in a modern and fun way about the importance of what sometimes seems like a detail. Colored animals inhabit a new city and surprise us with their unusual morals which, at times, seem to give an imaginative explanation to the strange laws of the world.
