Abstract

en_US Here is a heavy square book of 9 with 253 pages of dream stories. The first twenty-six of the forty stories here are traditional fables. Each story receives a title-page and four pages of mixed text and illustration. A sixth page presents a break before the next story. The beginning story of wolf and lamb is not the more frequent fable that sees the latter devoured but rather the more comfortable story in which the lamb turns down the request of the tired wolf for a drink of water that would revive him enough to attack the lamb. Next a clever old hen remains when a fox attacks the hen house and convinces him that he has nothing to gain from an old hen. The little fish not only appeals to the angler, but her whole family jumps out of the water around the boat calling for her. He throws her back and then catches some oysters in a net. The emphasis here seems to be on finding a happy ending, even to traditional fables that are curelly realistic. When the miller catches his ass in the lion skin, he reprehends him but does not seem to offer any further punishment. Other fables, like FC, which have less drastic traditional finishes, seem to be told traditionally. The ass that kicks the wolf really does have an injured ankle. This telling softens dangerously, I believe, the moral of BW: If you lie habitually, no one will believe you when you tell the truth. Only habitually? The stag escapes the dogs who chase him after he has admired himself in the water. The last fourteen accounts cover such things as radios, boats, trains, and tractors. It comes as no surprise that the accent of the artwork is on cute throughout.
