Goodness and kindness are amply rewarded in this Korean folktale. An old woman and her husband share their meager meal with a stranger and receive a magical amber stone. The magic amber keeps the rice pot overflowing, enabling the couple to feed themselves and others less fortunate. The stone is stolen, but in the end recovered. Bright illustrations show the dress, households and lifestyle of the Korean peasants.Book Details
