Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Bojabi Tree" by Edith Rickert is a children's storybook written in the early 20th century. This delightful tale revolves around a group of animals who are struggling with hunger and embark on a quest to discover the name of a mysterious fruit-bearing tree, which can save them from starving. The narrative combines elements of adventure and education, illustrating themes of cooperation and resourcefulness among the animals. The story follows various woodland creatures, including Robin Rat, Pinky Pig, Giddy Goat, and Tommy Tortoise, as they each attempt to find out the name of the "Bojabi" tree from King Leo, the ruler of the animal kingdom. Each character faces comedic mishaps and challenges that prevent them from successfully remembering the name until Tommy Tortoise, who cleverly creates a song to retain the knowledge, finally reveals it to the group. In the end, this newfound knowledge leads to the satisfaction and happiness of all the animals, establishing Tommy Tortoise as their king, celebrated for his wisdom and ingenuity.
