Abstract

en_US One of twenty in the series, found near the counter as we were settling up a large order of books. The story here is one that I do not recognize, at least in this form. A king happens to cut off one of his fingers. His minister comforts him by saying that whatever happens happens according to God's will. The angry king, not comforted, asks how he can benefit from a cut finger and throws the minister into prison. A few days later, the king is captured by some tribesmen and readied for sacrifice, but the tribal chief sees his handicap and declares that the tribe's deity will not accept a victim like that. The king, released, in turn has the minister released. Moral? Whatever happens, happens according to God's will. Slick computer-generated art on sixteen pages of a pamphlet.
