Publisher's Synopsis

Inspired by traditional animal stories from Africa and the Tingatinga artwork of Tanzania, the Tinga Tinga Tales series of picture books features the colourful cast of animals from the television animation and glorious Tingatinga artwork. Tinga Tinga Tales airs daily on CBeebies.

In this modern take on creation tales, brilliantly colourful Tingatinga artwork tells the story of Leopard's transformation from a dark, shy cat to the beautifully spotted animal we know today.

You see there was a time when Leopard didn't have any spots. Her coat was as plain as plain can be, and she was very shy... So what happened when Leopard helped Puff Adder, and in return he sang her a Tinga Tinga lullaby?
