- Abstract
- en_US "Here is a mysterious set of three books, found too long after I had acquired them. I have pieced together some information from the web. I know that they have one ISBN number for the whole set (957-492-375-4) and one for each volume (here: 957-492-378-9). This third volume has a group of animals reading an edict on a tree for its cover, which would be the back cover in a western book. That story, which I do not recognize, occurs on 122-25. A beginning T of C lists, as do Volumes I and II, 37 fables in this volume on some 191 pages, with stiff paper covers that form their own flyleaves. The fables are easy to recognize from the lively colored illustrations, usually two to a fable. Typical illustrations in this volume are "The Woodsman and His Axe" (47, 49); WS (71, 73); and "The Astronomer Who Fell into the Well" (175). Each fable has a small "post-it note" in a corner with a smaller version of one of the illustrations. Might that note express a moral? The set of three volumes is boxed."
