Stories and animals have long travelled the same routes. Through our heritage of charming, quirky and profound tales, you will find yourself re-acquainted with Britain's wondrous fauna.

Find out how hedgehog ended up with spines and what makes him scuttle so fast, discover how pigs saved a prince from leprosy and why the wealthy lord was so intent on capturing the black fox.

Sharon Jacksties' wonderful book combines traditional stories, little-known zoological facts and true anecdotes to create a treasure trove of stories for animal lovers of every kind.

the stories and narration are great. but the playback is a nightmare, the chapters in the audio don't have any relevance to the content, so finding my place again if I fall asleep for example, is such a pain.

Annoying playback, chapters don't match the actual content.

The stories are original giving insight into folklore but also current life. It is a well researched narrated book. My only issue was the music, it did not help and it was hard to listen especially if listening with headphones

The stories are great and insightful
