Abstract
-
en_US
This book is an introduction to road signs and to whatever kinds of signs fans and demonstrators are prone to brandish. The former are particularly attractive on these large landscape-formatted pages, since they are done with glossy pigments that make them look like stickers. There is also some groan-worthy humor in some of the latter signs. Hare today, gone tomorrow, Bad Hare Day, and Hare Goes Nothing give an idea of these. At a key point in the race, the hare gets into a construction area. At another, the tortoise is just leaving a rest stop as the hare is arriving at it. An ice cream cone at Ben and Harey's immediately precedes the hare's nap. When they finally enter town, they find Hare-Rod's Store along the way. The moral is Hard work pays off! Here is a case in which I had already found the book for $9 but had not yet catalogued it six months later, and so purchased another copy for $14.95. Oops!
