Abstract
This is a stray bilingual English/Thai pamphlet that I was able to pick up from a series of twelve illustrated on the back cover. Luckily, we have the series published in English and Vietnamese a year later. I will repeat comments I made there. The art is especially detailed and supportive of the text. The text appears in a few lines on each page. The English here is more idiomatic than there. The art makes the boy in the early illustrations wonderfully lively and frisky. This version, after he plays the trick "several times," has a whole pack of wolves attack his sheep. They destroy them all. Except for the beginning and ending single pages, this entire pamphlet consists of double-page illustrations, all well done. It took me a couple of years to figure out what language was used here. Thank God for the "Translate" app!
