- Abstract
- en_US A nice big book that I found at 9:02 after a day of finding almost nothing in Chicago's Near North Side. I had five minutes while the owner waited to close. The striking color illustrations are an unusual combination of highly defined black ink with less defined color masses. There are seventeen Aesopic fables among the fifty-seven stories told. The stories and sources (other than Aesop) vary greatly. Different: the house mouse apologizes for the interruption (8). The fox says to the lion: I fear I cannot accept your invitation (24). The stories are told with a certain fullness. Compare with Greek Fairy Tales (1968) by Wilson, which uses fourteen of these fables for its basic texts.
