It can be said, we can find stories about the Kancil throughout the archipelago - with various versions of course. The five stories about the clever beast in this book are just a few of the many versions that exist. Some of the stories in this book are taken from the books Structure of Toraja Oral Literature (1986), Folklore of Buton and Muna in Southeast Sulawesi (1988), and Folklore of Marnasa (1988) - all of which were published by the Center for Language Development and Development, Ministry of Education and Culture. Education and culture. Meanwhile, some other stories are processed from the author's memory of the fairy tale of the mouse deer in childhood.
I hope this booklet is useful.
