A crane and a clam, engrossed in their own locked combat, are scooped up by a passing fisherman for his dinner. This story, and five others adapted from Chinese proverbs, portray timeless truths and are presented here in both English and Chinese. Although the language is at times stilted, the accompanying cut-paper illustrations are striking and effective. Brief notes on the proverbs are appended.
