- Abstract
- en_US This 24-page two-staple pamphlet is fourth in the collection of 20 listed on the back cover. 7½" x 6¾". In the first story, a hunter finds a young deer and takes him on as a pet. Even the hunter's two dogs become friendly with the deer. After a few years, the deer ventures out into the world. In a village he encounters dogs and presumes that they will be as friendly as his mates at home. They devour him. In the second story, two wolves encounter a lion. Afraid of being devoured themselves, they ask him to solve a dispute over three chickens of theirs. He agrees, hoping to eat the chickens. The gray wolf enters their lair, supposedly to get the chickens out, but does not emerge. The brown wolf then asks the lion's permission to go in and get the gray wolf out. The lion permits it, and soon the two wolves are secure in their lair telling the lion to chase himself away. Partial-page and full-page illustrations alternate.
