- Abstract
- en_US This paperback booklet of 184 pages is the first of five volumes in one series. It contains, as the opening T of C shows, some 70 fables. The cover illustration is surprising, since it does not seem to belong to any illustrated fable in the book: a pink bird looks down on a sweating fox. This same cover has more claims than I can categorize. Some may indicate the series, like “Rensheng Bidushu” or “Must read in life.” Some of the stories are new to me, like “Crocodiles Eat Bad Guys” (17). There are many recognizable and rather simple Aesopic fable illustrations here, like MSA (24); "Snake and Crab" (55); "Tortoise and Eagle" (133); FC (169); and GGE (179). The cover proclaims "The oldest and most influential collection of fables in the world." There are many marginal bubbles meant to help parents work with young readers to see the workings and the focus of the fables. 6½” x 9½”.
