Jataka Tales by Ellen C. Babbit

Greedy mother steals all of the gooses feathers, they turn white if plucked against gooses will. The monkey uproot all of the trees in an attempt to make sure they have enough water. Wolf outsmarts man and does not fall for his tricks. Figures out that he is actually alive. Wolf tries to kill an elephant for the lion, is unsuccessful, and dies. It is what the lion predicted. Man says mice ate another mans plow, this man then says that birds carried off his boy. Both were lying, and got their things back. Story about an elephant and dog becoming friends, playing and eating with each other.
