Abstract
-
en_US
This landscape pamphlet of sixteen pages is a delightful telling of the story from the fable tradition. The ass asks the bull why he works so hard. The bull lies down and is taken for sick. The farmer then makes the ass do all the bull's work, and the ass is dead tired! After the bull says that he likes this arrangement very much, the ass tells him that if he does not work, he will be sold to the butcher. The bull goes right back to work, and the ass enjoys doing as little as he originally did. The illustrations are playful. One fine scene is the over-the-fence conversation that gets the whole plot going while a chicken family parades under the fence (7). The several images of the exhausted ass are particularly good. Do not miss the ass's wink on the last page or the worker's approach with the harness on the back cover.
