Abstract

en_US This is a lively rendition of MSA. Though plagued with English errors, it gets to a good conclusion when the ass drifts away. The stated moral is "If you try to please everyone, the work will end in a failure." The editor continues to have trouble in this series. Here we have "a group of childrens. They heard them said…" Again we have the problem of a finished quotation with a period followed by "said the gardener." This editor does not know English idiom: "How can you let your son walking." And here is a run-on: "They came upon the merchant he said…." In this particular series, the characters seldom have English "bubbles" directly expressing their thoughts or statements. These are narrated at the bottom of the page. The front-cover on both sides has symbols for Green Life publishing, Green Ocean paper, and yessoy ink. The publisher's symbol seems to be two purple heads reading an open red book; it is repeated three times. There is a page of vocabulary on the inside back cover, with a picture of all six books in the series on the back cover. The pamphlet is twelve pages long, about 7½" x 6¾".
