Book Information & Summary
Written and illustrated by Lee Hyun Jin
A twisting drama making fool of a strong tiger with cleverness
Tigers are one of the friendliest animals to us. Sometimes they are described as mysterious in the old stories, and sometimes they are considered as a fool character. In this book, the tiger implies a stupid big man who bullies weaker people with his power. On the contrary, the rabbit in this book implies a small but wise one who overcomes the crisis with its cleverness. Both the rabbit and the tiger meet each other three times, and repeat the relationship which two parties keep making fool of each other. As the episodes keep going on, the story gets more interesting.
Of course, readers cheer for the weak rabbit from the beginning of their first encounter. When the tiger tried to eat the rabbit, the rabbit came up with the trick that he would offer as many rice cakes as possible. He cheated the tiger by saying the stones are rice cakes, and baked them. Then, he ran away with the excuse of brining a bottle of sweet syrup to have with baked rice cakes. The tiger tried to swallow a hot stone on his own…. And then, finally, the tiger broke his teeth.
