    About this ebook

    A wordless story told in stunning images
    This story has no words—but it doesn’t need them. Tomie dePaola’s beautiful illustrations evoke the style of Hungarian folk art as each page paints the story of a hunter who comes to the forest. When he can’t find any animals, the discouraged hunter falls asleep. While he’s sleeping, the animals play a trick on him! Look closely—many animals are hiding in the pictures. 

    This is a fixed-format ebook, which preserves the design and layout of the original print book.

      A wordless book about a would-be hunter who sets out with a gun to kill animals. He cannot find any, although the reader will be able to spot the many animals hiding in the charming pictures done in the style of Hungarian folk art. Eventually he gets lost, is cold and hungry, and scared. The animals rescue him. He realizes they are his friends, and breaks his gun. The plot is clear, the pictures are exquisite, and the message is wonderful. (JAF)
