Abstract

en_US The presentation in this large-format pamphlet is lovely. The sixteen pages alternate regularly, with illustrations on the left and the texts in both English and Tagalog on the right. Enjoy the strange water buffalo or fat cow on 6. Not snow but rains come to make for hard days for the grasshopper. The style of presentation is Chinese, with frequent chops appearing on both text and illustration pages. In this version, the ant does not even open the door to his anthill when the grasshopper comes in the rainy days. The back cover folds out. The inside back-cover contains here a Stand-up Grasshopper. The simple moral three pages before the end is Save for the rainy Days! There is also a nice little maze for the ant to get through on the way to finding his food supply. This book is apparently one of five in the set.
