After tricking a fairy into becoming his bride, a woodcutter pays dearly for his treachery in this Korean folktale that explains why the rooster looks to the sky and crows loudly at dawn.

When you hear a rooster crow at the break of dawn, remember this story of the lovelorn woodcutter. After a deer teaches him how to gain a wife through treachery, the woodcutter finds a bride. But fate soon plays a nasty trick of its own. Based on a well-known Korean folktale, this book is written and illustrated by the same author and illustrator of the bestseller Korean Children's Favorite Stories, Kim So-un and Jeong Kyoung-Sim.
