Abstract

en_US This book presents a fascinating experience of the melting pot of fables as they are spun out and updated. Sauvageau mentions that he cannot remember where he got changes from the fables he read as a child. CP adds a snake, and Oak and Reeds a mesquite. The crane flies away after tricking the fox. The cricket gets married and has twelve kids, but gets some food from the ant. (Note the illustration on 33 of the ant facing a cop with a gun!) The milkmaid carries two heavy buckets, speeds up downhill, and trips. Mr. Hikes' family carries the mule first because the latter is stubborn; later the mule carries dad and the three sons at once. The stubborn mule stands stiff and comes home later on his own. The two sacks become pockets in the front and back of a suit, and the animals argued on Noah's ark. The coyote (not the wolf) tries a collar and leash but breaks away for freedom. The best story is The Eagle and the Owl (33). There are some orthographic problems: fragil, strenght, dozen of little ones. I hope the other three volumes become available.
