- Abstract
- en_US "Basada en la fábula de Esopo." This set of twelve-page pamphlets has a huge format of almost 11" x almost 15". There are ten pamphlets in the series. I have found five so far. This version of "The Tortoise and the Eagle" starts with the dream of the tortoise. She seems to be a female, with a flower in what would be her hair; she also has eyeglasses. Despite cautions from her parents, she persists in seeking her dream. A first effort has her creating wings and trying them out. The next step takes her to the eagle. The strongest illustration of the book shows her terrified up in the air of a canyon, where she has asked the eagle to let her now fly solo. The final picture shows that she has learned her lesson: she enjoys lying back in a pond. The two-page colorful picture spreads seem computer generated.
