Sambo is a black boy who encounters four hungry tigers who demand that he surrender his colorful new clothes, shoes, and umbrella or they say they will eat him. What will poor Sambo do? This story has been a children's favorite for over a century. First written in 1899, it has become a childhood classic and the authorized American edition with the original drawings by the author has sold hundreds of thousands of copies.

The Story of Little Black Sambo is a popular children's story authored by Helen Bannerman. This story was written by Bannerman, a Scot, while living in India. Although the book doesn't contain any racial overtones, it has been known as a controversial book due to the original illustrations in early european and american editions which gave the character an african look. In reality, this popular fairy tale is about a young boy in India and his adventures.

Story of Little Black Mingo is the exciting tale of a little girl who befriends a Mongoose after being kidnapped by a horrible Mugger. With the help of the Mongoose, Little Black Mingo must avoid being eaten as she tries to escape the island where the old Mugger is keeping her. A story of adventure, creativity, and luck, Little Black Mingo has been treasured by children everywhere since it was first written in 1901, and this delightfully illustrated edition brings the tale to life once more for the enjoyment of readers of all ages. Born in Edinburgh, Scottish author HELEN BANNERMAN (1862-1946) spent more than thirty years of her life in India, where she started writing illustrated letters to her two daughters, who were being educated in Scotland. Those letters became the basis for Bannerman's first and most famous book, The Story of Little Black Sambo, as well as nine more tales of clever children overcoming the odds, including Story of Little Black Mingo and Story of Little Black Quibba.
