'Uncle Remus & Friends' Summary
Uncle Remus & Friends is a collection of 17 stories from the American South, told in the unique voice of Uncle Remus, a former slave who shares his wisdom and experiences through tales of animals. The stories feature beloved characters such as Brer Rabbit, Brer Fox, and Miss Cow, and explore themes of friendship, loyalty, and the power of storytelling.
