Abstract

en_US ©Edizioni Larus. Cuteness is everything in this large-format colorful book of children's animal stories. The stories work with fable motifs, but extend them to greater lengths. Thus the first story has a cat show a hungry tiger the house where the cat meows to get a saucer of milk. The tiger watches and decides that he will get more if he roars. Instead of a little girl with a saucer of milk, he faces a man with a gun! The second story presents a conspiracy by a fox and a blackbird to get the lunch that a little girl brings her father; surprisingly the fox is once referred to as a wolf. In this story, the fox goes through well delineated steps in cheating his partner. First he divides the spoil, then eats his own, then tries the blackbird's, and then eats it all. When in the next story young Lilli needs to leave the farm for a while, she leaves the proud rooster Checco in charge. As he gives orders, he sees a disobedient rooster in the well and dives in to teach him a lesson. The fox in the next story teaches the little bear the lesson that honey enjoyed in moderation will taste good again tomorrow, but honey eaten wildly will spoil one's appetite for honey tomorrow. Die Zwei Kleinen Mäuse is a cute version of TMCM. Snails do the hedgehog trick in a race with an elephant while the real competitor sticks to the elephant's tail. Ducks fish for the moon. Like Brer Rabbit, a clever rabbit caught here in a garden trap convinces the dumb ass that he has been employed at five Talers per hour to watch the garden. On it goes through further stories. Good fun!
