The Portrait by KAY MCMANUS , based on an old Japanese folk-tale.
When Kiki-Tsum finds a portrait, apparently of his dead father, he is sure it must be an important omen. When his wife, Lili-Tsee, looks at it, she sees only the image of a woman. It takes the advice of the village priest to untangle the misunderstanding - and the wisdom of Kiki-Tsum's old friend, Saburo.
