I give you assurances, cried the Tiger to the Brahmin. "I shan't eat you if you let me out of the cage." But when the Brahmin makes a mistake of taking the Tiger at his word, he discovers that the dishonest beast intended to eat him all along. In the end, it is the wily jackal who comes to the Brahmin's aid and teaches him a lesson he had never found in his holy books. This clever, absorbing adaptation brings this beloved Indian folktale to life for the entire family.
