Ledha and the Leopard
- Leopard playing hide and seek with a lizard unlikely match
- Interesting how the leopard was watching
- Kind of funny imaging a leopard carrying a bed on its head
- Good that Ledha woke up
- Also funny how the leopard is thought to be a very dangerous and scary animal, but in this story he is afraid of a small lizard
- Animal - human relationship
- Measuring hair?
- Somewhat random turn of events when the princess wanted Ledha to promise to marry her..
- "Became a great Raja"
The Monkey and the Girl
- Monkey creating a plan to be able to eat crops
- Another human-animal relationship
- Girl wanted to marry the monkey - interesting aspect
- Turn of events when the father shot the monkey because he heard of his daughters intentions
- Intense, quick, and sad ending
- The offering of her daughter for help..
- Human-animal relationship
- Like the previous story in that it is a deeper connection than what is conventional in real world
- "How far off is our home, big head?"
- Intriguing story, the ending was both good and bad in terms of plot
