Mrs. Sissi and The Cat: Tunisian folktale for Children English - Japanese (Japanese and English Edition) (Japanese) Paperback

"Mrs. Sissi and the cat" is a famous / legendary Tunisian folktale passed through the generations from the oral literary heritage. A tale or a fable that everyone knows but never read ! A very funny story as much for children as for adults. It all begins when Mrs. Sissi, a devoted and orderly housewife, finds a silver coin while sweeping the floor of her house. This "event" shakes her daily routine ... and that of Gattous, the neighbor's cat! English - Japanese edition. This book can be read as an enjoyable new (although very old in Tunisia!) folktale, not known internationally until now, but also as resource to improve language skills in English or Japanese. Enjoy Japan!
