Abstract
Here is an attractive, well-produced paperback book of 139 pages with very lively contemporary full-page colored cartoons. The title comes from the Ethiopian proverb: "Smoke and courage will always find a way out." The book is indeed built on proverbs rather than narratives, specifically the proverbs in Ethiopian Jewish culture. The cartoons -- one for about every four full-page presentations of proverbs -- suggest a possible narrative for the proverb. Several address the same perception as well-known fables, like GA (52-53); "Cobbler and Financier" (96-97); and WL (106-7). This book is fun!
