Abstract

en_US This children's book is composed of seven thick boards bound together. On the cover a grasshopper with moustache sits on a mushroom playing his fiddle as a row of ants marches by carrying or rolling food and an ant-baby. The next pages expand on their labors. They include a cut-out portion that looks past their hill to the flowers. On the following pages ants continue their workline while, I believe, young grasshoppers dance about and the older grasshopper continues to fiddle. Succeeding pages show more ant work, including carrying off a dead or exhausted ant on a stretcher. And we see lots of grasshopper fiddlers while other ants push carts full of food, both by day and by night. Soon there are rains and snows, and an ant finds the grasshopper lying next to his fiddle on the ground. The ants take him in, feed him, and dance to his music. I believe it is typical of the East Block countries that a Hungarian book was executed in Czechoslovakia. Might there have been a Czech original?
