Abstract
This version of OR follows the lines of the traditional tale. Surprisingly, it omits the "big tree's" wish that it could protect the weaker reed. Instead, it only has the big tree asking why the reed bends with the wind. The reed answers proudly that the storm cannot damage it. The artist gives the reed a human-like head. The stated moral is "Arrogance will lead to destruction." The page devoted to the moral has a standard form of a mouse eating cheese. There are many snapshot photos of the story clothespinned to ropes across this page. The publisher's symbol seems to be two purple heads reading an open red book. 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".
