- Abstract
- en_US Here is a engaging eight-page pamphlet with stiff covers. It tells the story directly and even sparsely. Do not miss the smile on the ass's face on 5 when he has lost most of his salt. Then notice his chagrined look on 8 with the soaked sponges on his back! The version underscores the contrast nicely by exclaiming at the first point Lucky ass! and at the second Silly ass! Unfortunately, I notice that this is #9 of a series of twelve booklets. This is apparently the same group of twelve to which my 1986 booklet The Eagle and the Man belongs, but there it is published by the Wright Group. The collector in me wonders now how to find the other booklets in the set.
