Abstract

en_US This book may be the original behind a later and shorter version done in the same page-size (10½ x 7¾) by the same publisher in 1960. That volume had only 36 pages, while this has 60. That had twelve fables, while this has twenty-two fables. A quick check suggests that all of the fables--though perhaps not all of the illustrations--of the later volume are included here. There is an AI at the end. Though the title page gives a date of 1949, the colophon page at the book's end says that it was printed in 1952 as the fifth book in the series Bibliothèque Rouge et Bleue. This book's front cover shows a fox leaning up against a vine, thirsty for the grapes. The back cover shows a dapper crow in top-hat and scarf holding a piece of cheese. See my comments under the 1960 edition.
