- Abstract
- en_US This 5 x 8 pamphlet contains thirteen traditional Aesopic fables in Yoruba, each with a duochrome illustration in black and blue. The illustrations are by Joan Kiddell-Monroe who would (apparently) go on to create illustrations for a 1961 edition of Aesop's fables translated by John Warrington. She is also the illustrator for James Reeves' 1954 volume of English fables and fairy stories. The most impressive of the illustrations may be the wrap-around cover illustration. It contains many of the animals and elements of nature that will appear in the stories. This is my first Yoruba fable book.
