- Abstract
- en_US This is a version of the story of a man who picks up a cold snake. In other climates, the man brings it home and warms it near the fire. Here the farmer picks up a cobra and is warned that it us dangerous, but the farmer persists. The cobra bites and kills the farmer. The stated moral is "Do not expect kindness from an evil person." The editor continues to have trouble in this series. Here we have a run-on sentence "It is very dangerous you had better let it go." Also we have this narration about the past: "The cobra turn to snatch his arm immediately." 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".
