Notes

• Title in translation: Zacchaeus of the sycamore tree : Tales from the Bible.
• This kamishibai contains Imai Yone's retelling of Luke 19: 1-10. She provides a synoposis on the back of the first card, quoted from a "new translation" of the Bible. Zacchaeus was a sinful money-lender, who heard about Jesus and wanted to see him so badly that he climbed a sycamore tree to catch a glimpse of him above the crowds. Jesus calls Zacchaeus down from the tree and accompanies him to his house, where Zacchaeus repents and is forgiven.
• On the back of last card is a description of and advertisement for Imai Yone's book, "The Reality of Kamishibai" (Kamishibai no jissai).
