- Abstract
- en_US As throughout this series, the interior of the book complements rhyming couplets with shaded black-and-white drawings. Each booklet starts with an admonition from Aesop and regularly touches on something scatological that will appeal to young minds. Here Aesop admonishes "Do not flick bogeys from your nose. Always clean between your toes. Wash your hands each time you pee. Do not put bugs in Grandma's tea." The fox here is an acknowledged and even self-acknowledged trickster. He has written the book "You've been foxed!" Several pages into this booklet we learn that the stork is the narrator. Fox invited the stork shortly after she flew into the territory. Stork does a lot of talking at fox's lunch, which is served by moles. The moral here is "You see, one bad turn brings another. Don't play cruel jokes or tease each other. The Aesop lesson you should learn is: horrid tricks are soon returned!" 48 pages. 5¼" x 8".
