- Abstract
- en_US This is a 32-page adaptation of FG. Mother fox urges son to go get food, like his brother. Fox rather believes that someone will bring him something to eat. His mother cautions that Nothing is sweeter than something you work to get (12). Later that day he is alone, gets hungry, sees grapes, leaps for them, and cannot get them. I bet those grapes are sour anyway, he says (30). The moral of the story is: It's easy to despise what you cannot have (32). The art is a bit quirky. I found that there are five others in the series, and I just ordered them.
