    About this ebook

    ISSN: 2397-9607 Issue 333
    In this 333rrd issue of the Baba Indaba’s Children's Stories series, Baba Indaba narrates the German Fairy Tale - "THE FOUR CLEVER BROTHERS”.

    A poor old father sent his sons out to learn trades. Each one met a man and was persuaded to learn the trade of the man whom he had met. In this manner, the oldest son became a thief, the second an astronomer, the third a huntsman, the fourth a tailor. When they returned, their father put them to the test. He asked his second son how many eggs there were in a nest, high on the tree, and the second son used his telescope to tell him five. Next, the eldest son climbed the tree and stole the eggs without the birds even being aware, and the third son shot all five eggs with one shot. The fourth son sewed both the shattered eggs and the chicks inside them back together, so that when the eldest put the eggs back in the nest, again without the mother bird noticing, they hatched with the only sign being some red thread about their necks.

    Not long after, the King's Daughter was stolen by a Dragon and the brothers set out to rescue her. What happens next you ask? Were the brothers successful in their quest and did they manage to rescue her? If they did, what did they have to do?
    Well, to find the answers to these questions, and others you may have, you will have to download and read this story to find out!

    Baba Indaba is a fictitious Zulu storyteller who narrates children's stories from around the world. Baba Indaba translates as "Father of Stories".

    Each issue also has a "WHERE IN THE WORLD - LOOK IT UP" section, where young readers are challenged to look up a place on a map somewhere in the world. The place, town or city is relevant to the story. HINT - use Google maps.
