Battle of the Monkey & the Crab

While the original author of “Battle of the Monkey & the Crab” is unknown, David Thompson can be thanked for its translation. This story could be considered a child's book, but that would belittle the tale. Following the same footsteps as many myths from across the world, the story may focus on two creatures in the animal kingdom, but it is aimed for the entertainment and understanding of people of all ages. Thanks to Thompson, this charming story didn't become lost to history.
