Description

Epaminondas is a good-natured, yet comically literal young boy who constantly misinterprets and misapplies his mother’s instructions. When he is told to look after a playful puppy,  taking this advice too literally, Epaminondas watches after the puppy as it runs away down the road, and keeps watching after it, leading him to learn a more practical lesson about following directions with common sense.
