- Abstract
- en_US Five dramas. Good encouragement to adapt is built right into the first story, FG. FC is nicely elaborated. FS includes both Mr. and Mrs. Stork; the fox gets his muzzle caught in the pot. How a Bear and a Man became Friends gets into crazy language games: other animals cannot talk, but they think that there is something wrong with an animal that can talk. On the first day, the bear hits the man in the face with his paw. On the second day he piles grass on the man's nose. On the third day he asks a swallow to eat the fly. TH includes an ending comment (39) about the difficulty of playing the snake! The stories here are greatly elaborated. There are very nice monochrome illustrations, which I like a great deal, along with two poor full-page illustrations (frontispiece and 23). Beginning at 34 we find two-color art in green and brown.
