This is a folklore story; of how sometimes it seems like there are bad things that happen but if we wait it out we find out 'its all for the best' and in the end of the book the child is taught that those things we can't see beauty or organization in; if we look at it another way is the most beautiful thing we've seen. This story was a nice way of teaching the children about various things in life.

This story teaches the value of looking for the positive in all situations. Life has good and bad things that happen to us, but by looking at life with a positive outlook, that is the way to be happy.

Simple parable, powerful message. What is adversity, really?
