- Abstract
- en_US There are four fables in this 16-page, large-format (almost 8┬¢" x 11") booklet. The title-story comes only third of the four. "The Shepherd and the Wild Goats" is well told and well illustrated: those who treat new "recruits" exceptionally well are saying something about the way they treat old recruitsÔÇĞ. "The Thief and his Mother" includes a second unreprimanded childhood theft. "The Ass and the Lapdog" makes a point that this ass is well cared for already before he wants what the dog has. In BC, the meeting is called and led by an older mouse with glasses, who also makes the quieting response to the clever young suggestion-maker. Simple, lively illustrations. Apparently the young man with a chest of gleaming jewels on the cover is the thief in mid-career.
