- Abstract
- Here is a lovely second-grade reader from Germany in the 1950's. It contains a wealth of stories with lovely simple multi-colored illustrations. I find several fables among the stories. "Der Fuchs und der Hase" by Ludwig Bechstein (125-6) has two phases. The fox and hare work together to get the young woman's bread-basket when the hare plays dead on the road and the fox steals the basket. But the fox does not want to share. Then the hare recommends catching fish with the fox's tail. Once he is frozen in place, the hare eats all the semmels in front of him and urges the fox to wait until the spring thaw. Another fable is "Der Elefant und der Schneider" by Johann Josef Liessem (128). The tailor always treats with a piece of fruit the elephant passing by to get water. One day the tailor is in a bad mood and sticks the elephant instead with his needle. The elephant makes no response but comes back and douses the tailor with a trunk's worth of water! "Die beiden Ziegen" by Albert Ludwig Grimm has a particularly strong illustration (129). Both goats fall into the rushing mountain stream and barely survive. "Kater und Sperling" by Karl Plenzat has the caught sparrow advising the cat to clean his mouth before he eats the sparrow (132). Of course the sparrow flies away as the cat cleans its mouth. Ever since then, cats eat first and then clean their mouths. The publishers seem to be a consortium of three in three cities: Gemeinschaftsverag: Badenia-Verlag; Paul Christian Lehrmittelverlag; and Union Verlag.
