Tormented every morning by leopard and bullied by crocodile, the clever little chameleon decides to play a trick on them. He manages to get the better of his two oppressors without them even knowing how he did it! This is the story of why Crafty Chameleon changes colour and hides when he hears you coming.
This book is about a little chameleon who is teased by an alligator and a leopard. He finds a way to beat them before they can tease him again. He ties their 2 necks together with a rope saying that he is the one pulling them, when it is each of them pulling on the rope and cannot see each other. They both give up and the little chameleon wins. They never bothered him again. The lesson learned is how little people can accomplish bit things.
Funny and Endearing Entertainment for the Young

This is a funny, colorful and endearing book which gives great delight to children of all ages. Crafty Chameleon is an exciting book to read aloud with an excellent lesson about making the most of being the little guy. I have used it in many elementary schools as a way to interest the children not only in reading and performing but in African folklore and in expressing yourself vividly! Get it in hardback if you can -- you'll be using it a lot!
