- Abstract
- en_US Through an oversight, I bought a new set of ABCMouse books replicating the earlier series published in 2012 and 2013. Like the other four books in this series, this book has seen slight changes in its 2016 printing, apparently the third printing. Four pages are added at the end of the book, two pages of advertisements including awards and two of vowel sounds. The early bibliographical information continues to mention “10% recycled paper” but the title-page has dropped reference to free apps. The book still apparently numbers the front cover as Page 1. As I wrote of the first edition, the book is aimed at younger children. Is pouring a cup of tea (cover and title-page) or offering a glass of milk (front endpaper and 11) really part of this story? The former fits in in the end, since it seems that the fox has learned his lesson, that "A mean trick will be repaid." Apparently now the two characters are reconciled and can enjoy tea together out on the lawn. This fox is a natty male, while the stork has a large ribbon around her feathered head. There are two pages of glossary at the back of this very sturdy book.
