Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Unable to stand his overcrowded and noisy home any longer, a poor man goes to the Rabbi for advice.
Unable to stand his overcrowded and noisy home any longer, a poor man goes to his rabbi for advice. As he follows the Rabbi's unlikely advice, the poor man's life goes from bad to worse, with increasingly uproarious results. In his little hut, silly calamity follows foolish catastrophe, all memorably depicted in full-color illustrations that are both funnier and lovelier than any this distinguished artist has done in the past.
