The Flies and the Honey Pot

Abstract

Here is an extra copy of this booklet. Young flies find some honey and enjoy it. Warned by an older fly that it may impede their flying, they trust in their young strength. They all die in the honey. The stated moral is "Carelessness and heedless to warning of those who have experience will lead to disaster." The moral page adds to a standard picture of a child reflecting four images from this particular story. The editors struggle with English here, as is clear in the stated moral. The story begins with an incomplete sentence. Tenses get mixed up along the way. The front-cover on both sides has symbols for Green Life publishing, Green Ocean paper, and yessoy ink. The publisher's symbol seems to be two purple heads reading an open red book; it is repeated three times. 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".
