- Abstract
- en_US This book, with its colored illustration of FC against a silver background on the front cover and No. 1630 on the back cover should be considered together with two others in similar format listed under 1936? and having the same title. This book has 60 pages and includes 12 colored full-page illustrations signed by Urbain Raymond: L'Huitre et les Plaideurs, (3); Les Animaux malades de la peste (7); SS (13); OR (17); FC (the same as the cover illustration, 23); Le Renard et le Bouc (27); FK (33); MM (37); MSA (43); La Tortue et les deux Canards (47); Le Renard, le singe et les Animaux (53); and Le Chat, la Belette et le petit Lapin (57). Of these at least MM and MSA overlap with pictures found in the larger of those two books. These two may be the best illustrations here. The dancing eggs getting away from the milkmaid on 37 remain a special feature, even if repeated in another edition! This book has just one more colored illustration than the shorter book. Here there is a rhythm of either four or six page units including a colored illustration. Here there are no black-and-white illustrations.
