Abstract

en_US The chief features of this twelve-page large-format (8" x 11½") pamphlet are the prose rendition of the fable through the book, climaxed by La Fontaine's poetic version on the last page, and Romain Simon's delightful art work. Though this is the twentieth book in the collection that is illustrated by Simon, it seems not to repeat the art from any of the other publications. The front cover -- repeated on 5 -- shows the fox serving a shallow dish and smiling, while the stork seems to grimace. The fox in fact shows a wonderful range of emotions from glee to malice to self-satisfaction and delight. His departure is marked also with fine chagrin. Culled from the library of École St-Romain and Académie Langlois in Quebec. I have four of the set of six apparently published together.
