It's a Greek folk tale about a sea captain who has eggs for lunch in a restaurant and forgets to pay. Although he returns to pay for the meal six years later, the debt to the owner of the restaurant has grown in the time that has passed. Good for talking about the concept of interest in units about money. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
A sea captain must depart in haste from the inn where he had eaten a meal of four fried eggs. He returns six years later to pay his debt and discovers that the innkeeper's menu has gone up considerably--500 gold pieces, he demands! But a clever lawyer finds a way around the innkeeper's avarice. As The Bulletin of the Center of Children's Books said of this book, also published by Pantheon in 1971, "The style of the retelling is excellent (and) the illustrations have vigor and humor."
