- Abstract
- en_US "Here is a second copy of this booklet, printed a year after our copy from 2016. As I wrote then, this is a colorful cartoonlike presentation of FC on stiff shiny paper. The presentation consists of five two-page spreads that play well with the story. The crow rests on a pillow in his perch, with squirrel, worm, and butterfly as his neighbors. The fox wears human clothes, including suspenders, jeans, and sneakers. The squirrel holds his ears when the crow breaks into jubilant song. Three other booklets in the series are illustrated on the back cover. I will add now that one of the strengths of this big, bold presentation of FC lies in the depiction of the eyes of the two main characters. One sees Duchesne's care with the eyes on the cover in an illustration that is not part of the booklet's interior. Again, the title-page's illustration, taken from the two-page spread describing the fox's flattery, has strong depiction of both characters' eyes as they regard each other. Another clever touch is the squirrel holding his ears inside the tree as the crow ""sings"" and the crow, ""honteux et confus,"" blushing in the last illustration. La Fontaine's verse matches up perfectly with these well-chosen illustrations. With the addition of this booklet and FS, we have eleven of the twelve pamphlets in the series."
