Welcome back friends, and get ready for a darling little fable from beautiful Korea! I was so charmed by this little story and by the book (published all the way back in 1955!) from which it came! Our story centers on the relationship between a hungry tiger and a wiley little rabbit, who outwits him at every turn! The rabbit is a very important character in Korean folklore. Did you know that there is a festival that is celebrated on the lunar calendar in Korea, and the symbol for this festival is the moon rabbit! The moon rabbit is also called the Jade Rabbit, and is said to live on the moon! It is a very busy little rabbit because it is making rice cakes in a mortar, or bowl! If you look carefully, you can see the outline of this rabbit on the moon, and its little bowl beneath it-so next time there is a full moon, have a closer look, and you might just see our little friend!
