Abstract

en_US There are two Easter eggs pasted on 30 of the good copy, and there is some water staining on the older extra, but this is a delightful pamphlet. The fable is well told. Tom fools the hunters and the fishermen. Both unite with the townsfolk in turning against Tom when he needs them. The best illustration (21) recurs on the back cover: the wolf looms over Tom. Tom mistakes the voice at first. The wolf eats all the sheep and tells the moral. Tom realizes and changes his behavior. The fifth printing adds a number to the cover (TW 3282) and improves the paper stock for the pages. I will keep that fifth printing in the collection. It cost $1.65 at Magnolia Park Book Shop, Burbank, CA, in February, '97.
