- Abstract
- en_US This version of the traditional fable has the man living in an "old and decayed house." He asks the forest if he "may cut some trees in the forest." Their answer the next day is that he may cut one. Out of that one he shapes the axe-handle with which he cuts down many trees. The traditional fable may have the man asking just for one limb of one tree. The stated moral is "Think carefully before making any decision." The moral page has a standard setting throughout this Series #8: a child goat and an older bear look at a book together in front of a shelf of books. The artist has fun giving faces to trees. 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. 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".
