A traditional tale from Indonesia told with elements of repetition to help beginner readers develop confidence and reading stamina.

Part of the Usborne Reading Programme developed with reading experts at the University of Roehampton.

The little deer tricked the tiger three times. The snake was my favourite character because the deer pretended it was the king’s belt.

The tale is fiction. I liked mostly tiger, because he needed to suffer through everything. I think this book is teaching us don't loose hope even in the worst scenarious of the life. I will recommend this book for people who just starting to read English books.

Enjoyable read and felt sorry for the Tiger for being stung but he picked on the Deer. The Tiger learnt his lesson the wrong way.
