Under the Cherry Blossom Tree: An Old Japanese Taleby by Allen Say
Requirements: EPUB Reader | 8.28 MB
Overview: Spring had finally come and everyone in the village was happy, despite being poor – everyone except the miserly landlord. Mumbling and grumbling, he sat all alone eating a bowl of cherries and glaring as the villagers sang and danced in the meadow. Then, quite by accident, he swallowed a cherry pit. The pit began to sprout. Soon the landlord was the wonder of the village – a cherry tree was growing on top of his head! What happened to the cherry tree and to the wicked landlord is a favorite joke in Japan. Allen Say tells the story with wit and vitality, and his beautiful drawings complement this classic Japanese tale.
