This is a retelling of an old Aesop fable in which a mouse is running from an owl who is trying to catch him and a lion decides to save him instead of eating him. Later, when the lion is trapped in a poachers net, the mouse comes back to eat his way through the robe to free the lion. The Hired Hand (1997) -Aesop Prize (American Folklore Society) -Ten Best Illustrated Books of the Year (The New York Times) Story Summary: Retelling of an African American folk tale, this story involves a free black man who is looking for work. He finds an old sawmill and the owner hires him right away. However, the owner’s son discovers something mysterious about the new worker…he has magical powers. The son proceeds to do whatever he can to get rid of the new help, and then he tries to perform the magic himself, however he ends up killing a man in the process. The black man comes back to help save the owner’s son by telling the truth to the jury in his case.

John Henry (1994) -Caldecott Honor -Horn Book Award (Boston Globe) -Parent’s Choice Award Story Summary: This story is a retelling of The Legend of John Henry by Terry Small (this is just one of the other stories).

Eventually however, John Henry takes on a steam drill to see who can get to the other side of the mountain the quickest, and his heart bursts and he dies. All of the animals come to his funeral and end up learning that the dying part of life isn’t what’s important, but rather how well we lived that matters in the end. Major Works Continued…
