Abstract

en_US To my surprise, there really are fifty-five stories in this large-format book of 44 pages, with a T of C at the back. A number of fables occur that I recognize, including La Gata Encantada (in rather a different form from that of the usual The Cat and the Man, 7); El Papel y la Tinta (9); El Honrado Leñador (10); La Ostra y el Cangrejo (13): El Avaro Mercader (an unusual version of DLS, 19); La Golondrina y el Ruiseñor (19); La Gratitud de la Fiera (Androcles, 26); and El Osito y las Abejas (35). The unusual feature of La Gata Encantada is that the prince already loves his cat and neglects all the lovely young women of the realm. When the cat-nature is shown publicly at the wedding the day after the transformation, the prince is told that he will have to live with her. The transforming agent in this story is el Hada de los Imposibles. In El Avaro Mercader, the merchant is responsible for dressing his donkey up with a lion-head. He does it so that the beast, after scaring away the people, can feast on the alfalfa fields. The merchant thus does not need to feed the ass. The farmers confront the lion and then let it lead them to the merchant. Now the merchant has to pay for feed for his ass. The main component of the book seems to be fairy-tales. Every story has at least one colored illustration. These are simple, cartoon-like, and fun.
