Abstract

en_US Here is a paperback copy of a book I had found in a hardbound version twelve years ago. I believe that some changes in the publishing firm took place between the printing of that hardbound and this fourth printing of the paperback. Specifically, I believe Doubleday became Bantam, Doubleday and Dell. As I wrote there, the book includes two fables. GGE (12) is told in clever verse that identifies the farmer as from Kalamazoo; it is identified as a German tale. The Nightingale and the Hawk (40), identified as Aesopic, is new to me. The hawk spares the nightingale so that the latter can let him know when squirrels' houses are filled with walnuts. If you hear a nightingale, look out for a hawk. The illustrations throughout are in a romantic contemporary style.
