Customer Reviews

One of the best

I was given this book as a child, and have re-read it often throughout my whole life. An Indian folktale with a simple but clever story, the book is richly illustrated by artist Yoko Mitsuhashi in a style that will draw the reader back again and again. The book has a good moral, one that is not heavy-handidly thrust upon the reader, but charmingly presented in a witty manner. If you cam get ahold of this book, read it!
