The Stolen White Elephant

'Pale Terror Goes Him, Death and Devastation Follow!' This is from the father of American literature, four sparkling comic tales of extraordinary animals and parables subverted. This is one of 46 new books in the best-selling Little Black Classics series, to celebrate the first ever Penguin Classic in 1946. Each book gives readers a taste of the Classics' huge range and diversity, with works from around the world and across the centuries - including fables, decadence, heartbreak, tall tales, satire, ghosts, battles and elephants.
