Item description from seller

Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket. 30 pages. Color illustrations by Alexi Natchev. A long-suffering man who tries to please his crabby and demanding wife is bested by a sly fox in this Hungarian folktale. In the dead of winter, an old peasant woman insists that her husband rustle up some succulent fish to eat. Obsessed, she embroiders fish patterns on the napkins and hums fish songs until she drives her husband batty. In June he finally embarks on a fishing expedition and hauls in a great catch. Outfoxed by a fish-loving fox, the man returns home empty-handed, surely to endure more henpecking. Clean copy. Record # 204622.
