Publisher's Synopsis
Frodo, the fastest cheetah on the African Savannah. But his speed had made him vain and big headed. He thought he was so fast he could challenge the wind. Mother Nature is kind but dislikes arrogance. She taught Frodo a lesson, as he sped over the plains, racing the wind. The spots on his body began to fly off until there was not one spot left and a cheetah can have up to 1500 spots on his body. The animals laughed and Frodo was so ashamed he hid with his family. One day there was the cry of "Fire", the biggest danger on the dry plains. Many animals escaped to the river but many small animals were in the way of the oncoming inferno and could not outrun it. Frodo comes up with a plan to use his speed and warn the animals. Alan, the wise old baboon, then organizes the zebras, buffalo and wildebeest to carry the smaller animals to safety.
