Abstract

en_US I first saw a wall-full of this series at Kyobo Book in Seoul in July, '04. I bought one copy, came home, and worked to order the full set of thirty booklets, workbooks, and audio cassettes from the publisher. Each set cost 9,800 Won. I have divided that cost among the book (6800 Won), booklet (1000 Won), and cassette (2000 Won). The colored booklet features twenty-eight thick, sturdy pages and excellent color reproduction. The art is cartoon-like, simple, and direct. This version has the two meeting and the tortoise offering friendship, which the rabbit refuses. Why? Because the tortoise's legs are too short, he is too slow, and he cannot jump. Those insults provoke the tortoise's challenge to a race. The loser must carry the winner. The Rabbit decides to take a nap (15). The rabbit continues to sleep for hours (17). The tortoise refuses the ride on the rabbit's back and asks instead if the two could not just be friends. Talent is of no use without effort.
