Abstract

en_US This landscape-formatted volume, found by chance on eBay, has helped me to discover a new series, soon to include its seventh member. An older child reads to a younger from this book on a park bench, with their dog nearby. A full-page cartoon of them precedes each fable and follows the last fable. Those preceding a fable often have a relation to the fable itself. Thus the first fable is about a flute. In the cartoon, menor Tobi is blowing fluid through a straw at Mayor, and Mayor says to Tobi That does not sounds like a flute, and besides you're spitting on me (4). Fun with fables might be an apt subtitle for this series. These cartoons and fables would engage a young reader. Text and ballooned sayings in the illustrations complement each other in presenting the story. An additional full page at the end of each story states and applies the moral in the daily life of Mayor and Tobi. At the end, for example, of The Lamb and the Flautist Wolf, Tobi is distracting dad while he plays chess with Mayor. Mayor switches chess pieces and says Moraleja: Con ingenio se puede vencer al poderoso (11). New to me but quite Aesopic is Los Dos Tordos (13). Father thrush recommends eating a grape to son thrush. Son thrush has a better idea and leads father to pumpkins! Mayor's smaller dog announces to a friend and his larger dog, who are laughing at him, Hay que jusgar a las cosas por su calidad, no por su tamaño (17). Also new to me is the story of a butterfly and a snail (33). The butterfly forgets that she as a caterpillar was the friend of the snail. The book enjoys the kind of irony children enjoy in TV cartoons. Thus, in the moral of this story, the man in the butterfly role warns Aesop to be careful with his morals. Aesop's story of the old dog who can no longer hunt well has a similarly funny application. Tobi asks bald grandpa to do several different things with him, hears no each time, and then suggests Okay, let's talk before you become deaf (31)!
