Abstract

en_US
I first saw a wall-full of this series at Kyobo Book in Seoul in July, '04. I bought one copy, came home, and worked to order the full set of thirty booklets, workbooks, and audio cassettes from the publisher. Each set cost 9,800 Won. I have divided that cost among the book (6800 Won), booklet (1000 Won), and cassette (2000 Won). The colored booklet features twenty-eight thick, sturdy pages and excellent color reproduction. The art is cartoon-like, simple, and direct. This version has time to make some things explicit that are often presumed in the story. Thus the father is urging his son to get on the donkey with him: Just get on, son. People will think I am a bad father (15). After they have carried the donkey, the son says This donkey is getting heavy. And I am getting tired (19). The donkey responds nervously to the townspeople's laughter over seeing people carry a donkey. The father urges the son to jump in and get the donkey, but the son answers that the water is deep and he does not know how to swim. The donkey drifts away downstream. You can't please everyone.
