Abstract

en_US This 24-page two-staple pamphlet is eleventh in the collection of 20 listed on the back cover. 7½" x 6¾". In the first story, a foolish young rabbit is not attacked on first and second encounter, because he was too far away in the first and because the tiger was not hungry in the second. The rabbit foolishly presumes that he can befriend the tiger and approaches him. The tiger jumps up and eats him. The blue wolf story comes straight from the Panchatantra, where the animal involved is a jackal. "I was sent here by God. I came from Heaven. Therefore, you must all obey me. If not, I will punish you." Rain, not howling, reveals this imposter. The wolf dies for his treachery. Partial-page and full-page illustrations alternate.
