Ananse and the Tar-Stump

Someone was stealing Tiger's peanuts, so Tiger made a trap.

He tarred a stump and put a hat on it.

When Ananse came to steal peanuts, he saw the stump.

"Who are you?"

Ananse shouted. Stump didn't answer.

Ananse grabbed with one hand. Stuck.

Other hand. Stuck. Ananse butted with his head.

Stuck. He kicked the stump. Stuck.

Tiger came and laughed at Ananse.

"Now I'll burn you!" he said, pulling Ananse loose.

"Before burning me," Ananse shouted,

"jump the fire yourself. It's good luck."

Tiger jumped, and Ananse pushed Tiger into the fire.

Tiger died. Ananse got the peanuts.
