Abstract
This story is new to me. A father has three sons, the elder two of which are "unruly, crafty and cunning." The father gives an egg to each to see hatched. The older two go off and buy chicks and so hope to claim the prize. The wise father notes that it is too quick for an egg to hatch. He urges the two older sons to follow the behavior of the youngest. This series does not have a page for stating a moral. Instead the last page offers pictures of seven characters and then silhouettes with which to match them. The penultimate page has a section at the bottom titled "Teachings obtained from this tale." Here the teaching is: "Honesty is lasting, knavery is short-lived." The front-cover on both sides has symbols for Green Life publishing, Green Ocean paper, and yessoy ink. The publisher's symbol of two purple heads reading an open red book appears here only on the back cover. There is a page of vocabulary on the inside back cover, with a picture of all six books in the series on the back cover. The pamphlet is twelve pages long, about 7½" x 6¾".
