It's a collection of folktales about misunderstood / underappreciated animals. Bats, sharks, wolves, rats, spiders, etc. I managed to find cool stories for each, and in every one of them the animal is portrayed in a positive light.
It was one heck of a research project, and I really enjoyed it 😄

Putting vampire bats on treadmills reveals an unusual metabolism
A bat gym shows that vampires are more like some insects, burning amino acids from blood proteins rather than the carbs or fats other mammals rely on.Susan Milius (Science News)
The cats are now going to be crammed in one area with dogs and donkeys. Far from ideal. 💔🐾

I don't think my publisher would go for it, but now I want to work on it anyway...
(* no, not THAT way, just in terms of violence or complexity.)

The hero of the folktale finds out that the king he works for used to be the King of the Land of Eternal Youth. He was exiled from his kingdom by spiders because he was cruel to them and wanted to kill them off.
So now the Land of Eternal Youth is ruled by friendly spiders.

Quaint and adorable explanations for horrifying natural phenomena.
So far I have had cicadas growing "little umbrellas" (parasitic fungus) and a wasp rewarded by God with grubs turning into his children (wasp that puts eggs in live grubs). 😬 😬

According to a Lepcha folktale, bats are the only creatures that don't have to pay taxes 😄 That's because the King of the Birds and the King of the Rats couldn't decide who should tax them.
"So that is why the bat is free from all taxation. Everybody in the world pays some sort of revenue, even we human beings, but the bat is free and doesn’t."
I guess the bat took the "tax" out of "taxonomy"...

The Russian tale "Prince Ivan, the Firebird, and the Grey Wolf" has been translated to English in the 19th century by Edith Hodgetts as
"The Grey Wolf and the Golden Cassowary"
And now I can't not imagine the prince trying to wrangle
A damn FLYING CASSOWARY
(This is why you double check translations, people)
