Abstract
-
en_US
This is the seventh of seven strong books. The book is made to be read with the story -- English or Korean -- on the two accompanying CDs. The first thing one notices about these books is their stiff, strong pages. There are only fourteen pages in the book! Secondly, readers will note that this version has little of La Fontaine's emphasis. That is, the text pits the diligent ant against the lazy cicada. Thirdly, the art here is different from that in most of the books of this series. The characters, particularly the cicada, are suggested more than represented. The drummer under the leaves with his trumpet sitting nearby suggests the laziness of the story, but may be hard for viewers to recognize as a cicada. The centerpiece about singing in the shade has a dramatic head with mouth wide open, but again one might have to think a while to recognize what kind of creature this is. Traditional readers are in for a big surprise at the end of this story: The Ant welcomed the Cicada, and gave her some food. The Cicada thanked the Ant for her kindness. Here the ant may look more like a little boy. There's a time for work and a time for play.
